If you’re responsible for planning or implementing OCI Full Stack Disaster Recovery, understanding the difference between moving and non-moving compute instances (virtual machines) is a fundamental starting point.
Nearly every application recovery architecture can be understood through this model. Whether your organization describes its strategy as pilot light, cold standby, warm standby, hot standby, or active-passive, the underlying design decision is largely the same: how will the compute instances hosting your application be provisioned, maintained, and recovered at the recovery site?
In this Full Stack DR 101 video, Greg King explains moving and non-moving compute and how these concepts influence the design and implementation of application recovery strategies with Full Stack Disaster Recovery.
This video is particularly useful for experienced disaster recovery architects, engineers, and administrators who already have a strong understanding of DR in AWS or Microsoft Azure but are new to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). If you have worked with technologies such as AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery or Azure Site Recovery, this video will help translate your existing DR knowledge into the concepts and terminology used when designing recovery solutions with Full Stack Disaster Recovery.
AUDIENCE
This video is intended for technical IT professionals responsible for planning, designing, implementing, or operating disaster recovery solutions in OCI, including:
- Systems Administrators managing compute instances, operating systems, networking, and application infrastructure.
- Storage Administrators responsible for block storage, file systems, data protection, replication, backup, and recovery.
- Application Specialists who understand application dependencies, startup and shutdown sequencing, configuration, and recovery requirements.
- Cloud Architects designing resilient OCI architectures and defining disaster recovery strategies across applications and infrastructure.
Cloud Engineers responsible for deploying, configuring, automating, testing, and operating OCI environments.
- Solution Architects translating business continuity and recovery requirements into end-to-end technical architectures.
CONTENTS
0:00 Intro
1:32 Moving compute overview
2:30 Non-moving compute overview
