Microsoft outlines Azure's approach to cloud resiliency, emphasizing infrastructure, data protection, and cyber recovery. This framework aims to help organizations operate and recover under pressure, reflecting real-world constraints.
Microsoft defines resiliency in the cloud not merely through availability metrics, but as a fundamental ability of organizations to operate under pressure. It emphasizes the importance of governance and control mechanisms, akin to the complexities of a modern city designed to handle various disruptions.
Azure's approach to resiliency is structured around three main pillars: infrastructure resiliency, data resiliency, and cyber recovery.
Infrastructure resiliency focuses on maintaining application availability during failures, while data resiliency ensures that data is protected and can be recovered. Cyber recovery emphasizes safe recovery from compromised states.
Azure promotes a collaborative process for designing resiliency features with customers, ensuring that solutions align with their specific needs, including regulatory and sovereignty constraints.
This collaborative approach fosters not only resilient infrastructure but also promotes a shared understanding of resiliency challenges and solutions.
The framework supports a lifecycle approach that aids organizations in designing, assessing, and continuously improving their resiliency strategies.
By integrating observability and intelligent remediation, Azure helps customers validate their resiliency posture against unpredictable failure modes.
