Amazon Route 53 Application Recovery Controller

With the Route 53 Application Recovery Controller, you can use zonal shift and routing control to more quickly mitigate impairments for a multi-AZ or multi-Region application. These features support active-active and active-standby applications at any scale.

Route 53 Application Recovery Controller continually monitors resource quotas, capacity, and network routing policies, suggesting remediation when changes are made that would affect your ability to fail over to a standby replica. With configurable safety rules, you can prevent operators or automated policies from taking recovery actions that might lead to unexpectedly long recovery times.

With Route 53 Application Recovery Controller, you can reliably mitigate failures in minutes for even your largest and most critical applications. Use the Application Recovery Controller to quickly shift application traffic between multiple isolated environments to improve your application’s availability.

During a failure in even your largest and most complex applications, you can use routing control and zonal shift to quickly shift end user traffic to restore availability.

Route 53 Application Recovery Controller provides you with the tools you need to have confidence in a successful application recovery and to fail over quickly. Use routing controls for multi-Region applications or zonal shift for multi-AZ applications to recover from even a partial failure, such as a few milliseconds increase in latency or a 5% increase in error rates.

Continually monitor resource quotas, capacity, and network routing policies for your multi-Region applications and review changes that would affect your ability to fail over to a standby replica.
