QuestionQ33

Reliability and Business Continuity

A global company operates a critical primary workload in the us-east-1 Region. The company wants to maintain business continuity with minimal downtime if the workload fails. The company wants to replicate the workload to a second AWS Region.

A CloudOps engineer requires a solution that delivers a recovery time objective (RTO) of less than 10 minutes and a zero recovery point objective (RPO) to satisfy service level agreements.

Which solution meets these requirements?

Explanation

A multi-site active-active architecture keeps complete, serving workload capacity in both Regions and uses real-time replication, minimizing both service interruption and data loss. AWS documents active-active as providing zero or near-zero RTO and near-zero RPO; pilot light, warm standby, and backup-and-restore have longer recovery objectives or replication gaps.
