Resiliency
Strengthen resiliency with strategies that keep workloads running through outages, cyber disruption, and sudden load changes.
Overview
Define, validate, orchestrate, and manage application resilience strategies with confidence
- Define resilience targets for key workloads and proactively test failover through simulated outages. Monitor posture and performance from a unified view with resiliency capabilities in Azure.
- Use guided experiences to identify single-zone risks, prioritize fixes, and automatically distribute critical resources across availability zones, so your applications can run continuously even during outages. Run predefined or custom failure drills to simulate real-world zonal outages without impacting production. Validate failover behavior, monitor recovery progress, and generate compliance-ready attestation reports
- Built on a resilient platform, powered by integrated features, and shaped by your design as part of a shared responsibility model, Azure helps you achieve reliable, recoverable, always-on applications.
- Safeguard critical data with air-gapped immutable backups, encryption, and secure access controls. Recover with confidence using threat detection for virtual machine (VM) workload backups.
- Leverage built-in validation templates and deploy automated faults to execute drills with Chaos Studio. Export attestation reports for compliance and audit readiness.
