    Overview

    AWS Disaster Recovery Assessment by Cloud Wizard Consulting

    Cloud Wizard Consulting - an AWS Select Tier Consulting Partner - delivers a structured disaster recovery (DR) readiness assessment that evaluates your current recovery capabilities, identifies resilience gaps, and provides a practical roadmap for building cost-effective DR solutions on AWS.

    Our consultants hold all AWS certifications and have trained more than 5,000 professionals on AWS technologies. We bring deep expertise in services such as AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, AWS Backup, Amazon S3, AWS CloudFormation, and Amazon Route 53 to assess and recommend architectures tailored to your environment.

    How the Engagement Works

    Typical assessments are completed in 1-2 weeks depending on environment complexity. The engagement follows a structured methodology:

    • Phase 1 - Discovery (Days 1-3): Stakeholder interviews, infrastructure documentation review, and application dependency mapping
    • Phase 2 - Analysis (Days 4-7): Recovery objective validation, risk assessment, architecture evaluation, and gap identification
    • Phase 3 - Recommendations (Days 8-10): Findings presentation, DR strategy recommendations, and prioritized implementation roadmap delivery

    Engagements are scoped and priced based on environment complexity during an initial discovery conversation.

    What You Will Receive

    • Current disaster recovery and business continuity assessment
    • Infrastructure and application dependency review
    • Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) validation
    • AWS disaster recovery strategy recommendations leveraging services like AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery and AWS Backup
    • Workload criticality and recovery prioritization
    • Risk assessment and resilience gap analysis
    • Backup and recovery architecture review
    • Multi-Region and Multi-AZ architecture recommendations using Amazon Route 53 and AWS CloudFormation
    • Cost optimization considerations for disaster recovery
    • Prioritized implementation roadmap with actionable recommendations

    Example Use Case

    A financial services firm preparing for a regulatory audit needed to validate that its core transaction processing platform could meet a 15-minute RPO requirement. Our assessment identified gaps in cross-region replication, recommended AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery for automated failover, and delivered a phased roadmap that reduced projected recovery time. In a previous engagement, we helped a client reduce DR-related costs by 40% through architecture optimization.
