Explanation:

In business continuity planning, a disaster recovery site is one that is set up to ensure the computer operations of the business does not come to a halt in case of a system emergency or disaster.

The disaster recovery site could be a hot site, warm site or cold site.

An advantage of a hot site is that it can be set up quickly and as such, takes less time to become operational than a cold site.

However it has a cost disadvantage as it is more expensive to set up.
