Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. This week for Women’s History Month, we’re continuing to feature female authors. We’re showcasing women in the tech industry who are building, creating, and, above all, inspiring, empowering, and encouraging everyone—especially women and girls—in tech. Companies choosing to rehost their on-premises SQL Server workloads to AWS can face challenges with setting up their disaster recovery (DR) strategy. Solutions such as Always On can be a more expensive, complex configuration across Regions. It can cause latency issues when synchronously replicating data cross-Region. Snapshots have additional overhead and may breach their stringent recovery point objective/recovery time objective (RPO/RTO) ... Read More

For healthcare providers, Dr. B simplifies vaccine distribution to help reduce the waste of unused doses. This was particularly critical in the early days ... Read More

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. In my first blog post of this series, I introduced you to four strategies for disaster recovery (DR). My subsequent posts shared details on the backup and restore, pilot light, and warm standby active/passive strategies. In this post, you’ll learn how to implement an active/active strategy to run your workload and serve requests in two or more distinct sites. Like other DR strategies, this enables your workload to remain available despite disaster events such as natural disasters, technical failures, or human actions. DR strategies: Multi-site active/active As we know from our now familiar DR strategies diagram ... Read More

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. In this blog post, you will learn about two more active/passive strategies that enable your workload to recover from disaster events such as natural disasters, technical failures, or human actions. Previously, I introduced you to four strategies for disaster recovery (DR) on AWS. Then we explored the backup and restore strategy. Now let’s learn about the pilot light and warm standby strategies. DR strategies: Pilot light or warm standby When selecting your DR strategy, you must weigh the benefits of lower RTO (recovery time objective) and RPO (recovery point objective) vs the costs of implementing and ...
