Overview
With this Proof of Concept (POC), Softchoice will configure AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) to replicate your on-premise workloads to AWS. If a failure occurs, your selected application (up to three servers) will fail over to AWS, ensuring business continuity while your on-premise environment is restored. This low-risk approach lets you validate AWS as a disaster recovery solution in a real-world scenario before making long-term decisions.
Who should consider this? SMBs without an existing disaster recovery solution Customers with mission-critical workloads but no failover plan Organizations looking for a DR strategy Companies hesitant about full cloud migration but interested in exploring AWS for business continuity
What’s included?
Planning & setup: Review IT environment, define Recovery Time Objective (RTO) & Recovery Point Objective (RPO), and configure AWS networking (VPC, VPN, IAM).
AWS replication & failover: Deploy AWS Replication Agents, configure AWS DRS for real-time syncing, and enable failback to on-prem.
Test failover & validation: Conduct a controlled failover test, monitor system performance, and validate against business requirements.
Documentation & next steps: Provide a full summary of setup, test results, and recommendations for moving from POC to production.
