Hot sites
            The biggest distinction between a hot site and a hosted site entails the sharing of equipment for infrastructure components including peripherals and servers. A hot site is mainly suitable for corporations whose recovery term objective is a few hours rather than minutes (Chow, 2012). In this type, storage is commonly dedicated while real-time data reaction may be utilized to get the lost data from a production site. Hot sites are commonly inexpensive compared to hosted sites because it can be implemented through outsourcing rather than using an in-house approach (Burkes, 2012).
Warm sites
Contrary to hot sites, warms sites mainly depend on backups for retrieval. Consequently, a dedicated storage is not required, however, a less expensive shared storage can be used. Therefore, all elements of a warm site which include storage shared among several consumers. Currently, disk-based backups have played a major role in narrowing the rift between a hot and a warm site. Disaster recovery companies and service providers are now using an electronic vaulting option in form of a disk-based backup (Cordell, 2014).
Cold sites
A cold site refers to a rented space consisting of power, cooling, and a network connectivity ready to accept any equipment used (Burkes, 2012). The cold consists of recovery site of more than a week hence may the best option for an organization whose process may be down for a long span of time. Additionally, cold sites are commonly used as backups for warm and hot sites thus mainly used in events of long time disasters. This approach is a bit unique and different from the rest because the recovery plan, in this case, ought to clearly explain the various processes delivering and procuring equipment during events of disasters.
