Disaster recovery - Active/Passive

Disaster recovery concepts and implementation for Automation Suite multi-site deployments.

This article walks you through the core concepts and architecture of Automation Suite disaster recovery, covering Active/Passive deployments.

Ensuring continuous business automation is at the core of any automation platform. Automation Suite can withstand the complete failure of nodes, entire data centers, or regions. You can deploy Automation Suite as an Active/Passive configuration.

Automation Suite multi-site deployments in Active/Passive mode support the following scenarios:

• Same-region deployment - Two Automation Suite clusters deployed in the same region;
• Cross-region deployment - Two Automation Suite clusters deployed in different regions.

The following table provides details on which Automation Suite products you can deploy in Active/Passive mode.
