Cloud Resilience and Disaster Recovery Patterns
2 Courses
2 Hours
Skill IQ
Learn how to recognize cloud failure patterns, select resilience and disaster recovery strategies, and evaluate whether recovery plans are ready for real-world outages. Choose this path if you already understand core cloud services and want to make better architecture decisions around availability, failover, recovery objectives, and operational readiness.
Content in this path
Essentials
Build the essential judgment needed to recognize how cloud systems fail, choose practical resilience and disaster recovery patterns, and define the evidence required to prove a recovery plan can work.

What You'll Learn
- 1. Analyze cloud workloads for failure domains, blast-radius risks, dependency failures, and recovery assumptions
- 2. Compare resilience and disaster recovery patterns including redundancy, decoupling, backup and restore, pilot light, warm standby, active-passive, and active-active recovery
- 3. Define recovery validation activities, evidence, runbooks, and readiness checks that prove a cloud workload can recover from failure
Prerequisites
- You should have practical fluency with the core primitives of at least one major cloud provider, including compute, storage, networking, identity, monitoring, regions, zones, load balancing, managed databases, and basic deployment models. This path assumes you are comfortable reading cloud architecture diagrams and reasoning through tradeoffs, but it does not require deep expertise in a specific provider’s disaster recovery services.
