Disaster recovery

A recovery environment that has been failed over to, not just paid for.

Typical timeline
4–10 weeks
Ongoing cadence
Annual failover test
Delivered by
ClearPath engineers

Disaster recovery is the technical half of continuity, and it is where untested assumptions hide. We build the recovery target, document the order of operations, and then actually fail over, because the first failover always finds something.

How we do the work

01 · Assess

We confirm recovery objectives and tier systems.

02 · Architect

We design the recovery target, replication topology, and network cutover.

03 · Deploy

We build and seed replication, and prepare DNS, routing, and identity dependencies.

04 · Configure

We write per-tier runbooks with order of operations and validation.

05 · Maintain

We test failover annually, remediate, and keep runbooks current.

What the engagement includes

  • Recovery tiering and objective sign-off
  • Recovery target and replication design
  • Network, DNS, and identity cutover planning
  • Per-tier failover runbooks
  • Annual failover test and remediation

What you are left holding

  • Recovery tier and objective matrix
  • DR architecture diagram
  • Failover and failback runbooks
  • Annual test report with findings

Documentation is yours to keep, whether or not we keep working together.

You probably need this if…

  • Replication configured but never failed over
  • No documented order of recovery
  • Recovery depends on one person's knowledge

How you engage us

Same engineers either way. The difference is how much of the ongoing work stays with your team.

Option 01 · Project

Fixed scope, fixed outcome. We assess, architect, deploy, and hand over with documentation. Your team runs it from there.

Option 02 · Most common · Co-managed

We own the design, the hard changes, and after-hours cover. Your team keeps day-to-day control with our engineers on call.

Option 03 · Fully managed

End-to-end ownership against an SLA: monitoring, maintenance, and reporting, with a named engineer who knows your environment.

Let's scope Disaster recovery against your environment.

An hour with one of our engineers gets you a realistic scope, a timeline, and an honest read on what to do first.
