Information systems downtime at points or service: A Study of banking institutions in Kenya

Abstract

Information systems downtime (lSDT) in industry, the public and private sector results in great losses yearly. System crashes in production environments can lead to material and non-material damages. Only those with a functional risk management understanding have a grasp of the potential hazards. This study investigates how the banking industry responds to "High Availability" (RA) solutions that have been a subject of great research in the last few years. The availability of data is one of the most costly investments of every organization.
