The public cloud can make resilience easier than on-premises solutions do — but only if you architect it that way. More isn’t always better, as over-the-top resilience architectures can quickly result in overspending. You’ll need to assess that you’re getting the right level of protection for your workloads. Business risk appetite, data protection needs, application criticality, licensing, and as-a-service subscription costs are key considerations as you design your approach. This report looks at how to develop a cost-effective public cloud resilience strategy that includes everything from must-have high availability (HA) to just-in-case cold sites.
