VerifiedDisaster Recovery Planning Process

XYZ.com is a popular online discount store headquartered in London. Following a disaster, one of its hosting servers was destroyed, significantly slowing the website. Management feared this would reduce website traffic. Fortunately, the organization's network administrators resolved the website-performance issue by redirecting site traffic to the alternate hosting server in Mumbai. What technical term most accurately describes this scenario?

Explanation

Failover is the automatic or manual transfer of service operations from a failed primary server to an alternate server, allowing the service to continue after the primary hosting server is destroyed.
