Listen Later

It’s 2:00 a.m. your phone buzzes. Alerts are flooding in. The production database is down, your main region is unresponsive, and customers are already posting on social media. Panic? Not if you’ve prepared.


In this gripping episode of The Cloud Engineer’s Playbook, Disaster Recovery in the Cloud : where milliseconds matter and preparation separates chaos from control.

We’ll start with the basics: What exactly counts as a disaster? From accidental deletions and server crashes to regional outages and cyberattacks, you’ll learn how to identify and anticipate threats before they take your business offline. Then, we break down how to plan, design, and execute cloud recovery strategies that keep your systems and your sanity intact.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • The anatomy of a disaster and why it’s not always what you think.

  • The difference between high availability, backup, and true disaster recovery.

  • How to build a cloud architecture that can survive anything using multi-region deployments, automated failovers, and replication strategies.

  • How to measure resilience with RPOs and RTOs, and why those two numbers could save your business.

  • The importance of regularly testing and updating your DR plan before disaster tests it for you.

This isn’t just a technical discussion it’s a playbook for survival in the unpredictable world of cloud computing.
