Which use cases may require using CloudEndure Disaster Recovery?

Currently, AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery does not support all of the AWS Regions or operating systems that are supported by CloudEndure Disaster Recovery.

If your preferred AWS Region is not currently supported by AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, or if your operating system version is not currently supported by AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, consider using CloudEndure Disaster Recovery.

If you are already using CloudEndure Disaster Recovery, you can continue to do so without interruption. Please engage AWS Premium Support or your Technical Account Manager (TAM) to determine the best time to switch to AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery.
