Amazon Web Services: Disaster Recovery (2017)

A disaster recovery (DR) procedure is a critical component of each organization's business continuity plan. The failure to appropriately plan for a datacenter outage can have a profoundly negative impact on a business, as recent public events have indicated. From IT executives to system administrators, it's imperative that employees have an in-depth understanding of their organization's DR plan. This entry-level course reviews the benefits of the public cloud—specifically, Amazon Web Services (AWS)—in implementing a DR plan. It also covers AWS-specific DR concepts, shows how to configure the core AWS services needed for DR, and provides demos that give you hands-on experience with using AWS services to build a reliable DR environment.
