Enhance Disaster Recovery Backup and Restore Strategy with AWS
Focused Technology Areas for the event: AWS Compute and AWS Databases

AWS M-Power Academy is all set to launch the first event of its third season, which will focus on disaster recovery backup and restore strategy. The event will comprise two curated, tech-intensive, 60-minute sessions, which will be followed by interactive Q&A sessions.  

Businesses today want simple, fully managed services that protect application data and increase the overall resiliency of their application stack. Application builders, on the other hand, want resilient application data services that are easy to use and scale.

Application and data resiliency are crucial for both organisations and application builders to ensure business continuity and disaster recovery (DR) for customers. This is also a regulatory requirement in regulated industries like FinTechs, Banks etc. The two sessions will cover topics like application data resiliency and protection designs, extending from native data resiliency capabilities of AWS services to AWS Backup through DR solutions using AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery.

The sessions will also include a cover cold backup replication strategy with a cross-region copy for AWS databases.
