AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery Now Available in AWS European Sovereign Cloud

AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) is now available in the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, enabling organizations with data sovereignty requirements to protect their mission-critical workloads with disaster recovery on AWS. AWS DRS minimizes downtime and data loss with fast, reliable recovery of on-premises and cloud-based applications using affordable storage, minimal compute, and point-in-time recovery, with Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) measured in seconds and Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) typically in minutes.

With AWS DRS, you can recover applications from physical infrastructure, VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, and cloud infrastructure. AWS DRS uses a unified process for testing, recovery, and failback for a wide range of applications, including critical databases such as Oracle, MySQL, and SQL Server, and enterprise applications such as SAP.
