Abstract

Globally, natural disasters are increasing in both severity and frequency—and the risk of cloud provider outages and infrastructure failures are increasing right along with them. Human error, malicious attacks, and downtime required for updates and maintenance are other perennial threats to operational resilience. Multi-region application architectures mitigate these risks: if one region becomes unavailable, traffic is automatically routed to functioning regions, reducing or fully avoiding downtime while ensuring continuous service availability. This detailed report examines the benefits of building or obtaining your own multi-region application architecture. Principal engineer Rob Reid shows database administrators, software architects, platform architects, and principal and senior software engineers how an organization can deploy an application and database across multiple regions for performance, compliance, resilience, and efficient business expansion into new markets. You'll learn how a multi-region application architecture enables you to reduce or fully avoid downtime while ensuring continuous service availability.
