Research Methodologies used in Backup and disaster recovery plan TR methodology
Into the backup and disaster recovery plan, research methodology is used for formulating
the identified research questions to provide a clear picture of the experimental gap. The methods
are used for gaining knowledge about existing backup as well as recovery strategies and
challenges into the enterprise (Taylor, Bogdan, & DeVault, 2015). Application of the research
methodology helps to understand methods which are adopted to analyze the research of the
customers into decision making. In this methodology paper, the researcher articulates the
methods which are chosen to investigate the research problems. It articulates the reasons why the
researcher has chosen the particular procedures as well as techniques to perform the research
study.
Research Design
Lewis (2015) stated that research design is referred to the strategy which is integrated
into various components of research study into logical way. It ensures to address the research
problem which is identified into the problem statement. It contributes to blueprint to collect
measure as well as analyze the data. There are three types of research design such as exploratory,
descriptive in addition to explanatory (Tyler, 2017). Exploratory research design is intended to
explore research questions as well as it is not intended to provide final as well as conclusive
solutions to the existing problems. This particular research design is conducted to study the
problems which are not evidently defined. This research intends to provide with conclusive
evidence, but it helps to better understand the problems. The aim of this research design is to
give final as well as conclusive answers to identified research questions (Gast, & Ledford, 2014).
Descriptive research design is used for describing accurately the facts of the provided population

and area of interest. Explanatory research design is focused on why questions. It is conducted for
the problems that are not researched before, and it is provided a better researched models. This
particular research design starts with the general idea as well as it uses of research as tool to
perform the research.
Based on selected research topic, descriptive research design approach is recommended
to use. Descriptive research design is the study which is designed to depict the participants into
proper way. Mackey and Gass (2015) argued that this research design approach is used for
obtaining information concerned with the current status of phenomenon and then describe with
respect to the variables furthermore conditions into the situation. Throughout process of the data
collection, this approach is applied to better describe the backup and recovery plan.
Into the selected research design approach, it provides a blueprint to measure the data by
the experimental as well as observational means. Descriptive design is considered as
observational study which is required to find out the characteristics of the population those are
going to interview and take the online survey. It explores the selected research topic into
additional information (Cicourel, 2016). It provides a complete research to add information on
the backup as well as recovery plan. This particular research study provides an outline to
undertake the selected research study into accurate in addition to efficient manner so that a
proper plan is created for the backup as well as recovery system so that an organization
implemented a proper backup plan to manage the disaster.
Data Processing and Analysis
Data Collection Method: At first the data are collected and then it is measured data in
variables of the researcher’s interest. The collection of data is taken as a proper way which
