Recovery as a service disaster recovery warm site or hot site where the recovery resources must be running at all times. The term "recovery as a service" (RaaS) is considered to be part of the nomenclature of cloud computing, along with infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS).

A RaaS sandbox is a pool of infrastructure resources in which a test copy of the RaaS protected application can be deployed
