What does static stability mean with regard to a multi-Region disaster recovery (DR) plan? In the simplest case, we’ve deployed an application in a primary Region and a backup Region. In an event that triggers our DR plan, we manually or automatically switch the DNS records to direct all traffic to the backup Region.
