Disaster Recovery (DR) Architecture on AWS, Part IV: Multi-site Active/Active

AWS Disaster Recovery

The architecture in Figure 2 shows you how to use AWS Regions as your active sites, creating a multi-Region active/active architecture. To maintain low latencies and reduce the potential for network error, serve all read and write requests from the local Region of your multi-Region active/active architecture. DR strategies.

Disaster Recovery (DR) Architecture on AWS, Part I: Strategies for Recovery in the Cloud

AWS Disaster Recovery

Figure 2 shows the four strategies for DR that are highlighted in the DR whitepaper. All requests are now switched to be routed there in a process called “failover.” For tighter RTO/RPO objectives, the data is maintained live, and the infrastructure is fully or partially deployed in the recovery site before failover.
