AWS Disaster Management

 RPO: Recovery Point Objective.


RTP: Recovery Time Objective.


Disaster Recovery Strategies:

  1. Backup & Restore.

  2. Pilot Light

  3. Warm Standby

  4. Hot Site/Multi Site approach

  1. Backup & Restore:

    1. Very easy 

    2. Only cost of storing the data

    3. Can take long to Restore.

    4. High RPO & High RTO.

  2. Pilot Light

    1. A small version of the app is always running in the cloud

    2. Useful for the critical core

    3. Very similar to backup & restore

    4. Faster than backup & Restore as critical systems are already up.

  1. Warm Standby:

    1. Full System is up but at minimum size

    2. Upon disaster we can scale up to prod load


  1. Hot Site / Multi Site approach

    1. Very low RTO (minutes or seconds) → very expensive

    2. Full production scale is running on cloud or on prem

    3. Active Active Status
