Azure Disaster Recovery as a Service - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is Disaster Recovery as a Service?

Disaster Recovery as a Service is a cloud service model that enables data backup and IT infrastructure in a third-party cloud computing environment.

Organizations opting for DRaaS get all the DR orchestration to regain access and functionality to IT infrastructure after a disaster.

Irrespective of it being an as-a-service model, the organizations using the service don’t need to own all the resources or handle all the management for disaster recovery. They will get all the solutions through a service provider.

It is an effective solution that reduces the downtimes and loss of critical data.

With Disaster Recovery set-up, Azure’s virtual machines continuously replicate data at different locations.

In the case of a disaster-like event caused by natural or human activity, the organization can failover the VMs to a different location and continue their operations from there.

When systems resume at the original location, they can failback and restart their access at the primary location.

Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) are critical components of the Disaster Recovery Framework.

These benchmarks decide the best ways to handle data during a disaster and are set as per the enterprise’s requirements.

RTO is the time duration required to restore all data and applications during a disaster.

RTO minimizes downtime and service disruption.

RPO designates the acceptable loss of data due to the disruption of service during a disaster.

Critical IT systems and data is stored in Cloud to backup and restore the data after a disaster such as hardware failure, natural disaster, or cyberattack. To minimize the downtime and data loss organizations apply this strategy to quickly recover applications and workloads in a secure, scalable cloud environment.

Azure offers a set of disaster recovery tools and features through Azure Site Recovery (ASR) to protect the systems during a disaster. ASR enables automated failover, replication and recovery of Virtual Machines, physical servers and applications to a secondary site. With its customizable recovery plan and continuous monitoring, azure helps ensure the downtime to be minimal during disruptions.
