Business Continuity overview

Business Continuity is a dedicated Cloud Avenue landing zone designed for production workloads requiring continuous service availability across two geographically separated datacenters. 

Compared to the standard Cloud Avenue landing zone, it introduces a dual-site active-active architecture based on a VMware stretched cluster, providing near-zero RPO/RTO through redundant compute, storage and networking components. 

The platform also extends Cloud Avenue with resilient connectivity through Evolution Platform and end-to-end security services, while continuing to leverage the existing shared service ecosystem, including backup, storage services, monitoring and operational capabilities. 

The following sections describe each architecture domain in detail, including Compute, Storage, Network, Security, Connectivity Backup…
