Earlier this year, we announced the beta program for OCI Full Stack Disaster Recovery. I am now thrilled to announce the general availability of OCI Full Stack Disaster Recovery. Full Stack Disaster Recovery (Full Stack DR) orchestrates the transition of infrastructure, platforms, and applications between OCI regions from around the globe with a single click. Switchover or failover events can be handled in the context of a controlled role transition or disaster recovery (DR) event from the primary to the secondary region.
These are some of the common challenges customers face in managing disaster recovery:
Modern applications and databases need uninterrupted availability to ensure business continuity during unplanned outages and planned maintenance events. Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture (MAA) provides a standardized reference architecture for never-down deployments with various choices per application service level requirements. Oracle MAA can help customers to increase uptime, protect data and maintain system health.
To align with recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO) requirements for applications with different criticality, the Oracle MAA team has built reference architectures and categorized them into four tiers, including Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum.
Customers who have deployed Oracle Databases and applications by following MAA best practices in OCI can expand that data protection and availability advantage to the entire application stack using OCI Full Stack DR. OCI Full Stack DR orchestrates and validates the switchover or failover of databases, applications, and infrastructure across OCI regions or availability domains. Oracle Full Stack DR integrates with Oracle Data Guard for Oracle Database and OCI storage replication for infrastructure and storage.
With the introduction of OCI Full Stack DR, our MAA cloud-based solutions encompass the entire application system with straightforward extensibility for any other service or components that need to be represented. Customers can see various benefits, such as lowering operating expenses, increased reliability, and reduced complexity.
Oracle Full Stack Disaster Recovery is a fully-managed disaster recovery (DR) service in OCI that eliminates much of the complexity of managing DR.
OCI Full Stack Disaster Recovery key features include:
Stay tuned for an upcoming “Getting Started with Full Stack DR” blog post, where we will quickly tackle the nuts and bolts of taking advantage of this new service.
