In this advanced lab, you will build a multi-region disaster recovery architecture leveraging AWS services. The goal is to create a system that can withstand regional outages and ensure business continuity. You will configure and test failover strategies, deploy resources across multiple regions, and evaluate cost implications while ensuring high availability and data integrity. This lab focuses on critical enterprise-scale solutions requiring deep integration knowledge across networking, storage, and compute resources.
Your company, Globex Corp, operates a popular e-commerce platform with users across North America and Europe. Due to increasing regulatory requirements and customer expectations, the platform must ensure uptime even during regional failures. Your task is to design a disaster recovery strategy that utilizes AWS to achieve an RTO of less than 1 hour and an RPO of less than 5 minutes. Globex Corp has a monthly budget of $15,000 for disaster recovery operations, and data must be encrypted at all times.
