Abstract

With Disaster recovery (DR) in cloud computing, services provided by cloud providers are mostly managed by third-party disaster recovery providers. Therefore, it creates the necessity to develop an effective DR method to minimize the total cost of recovery along with the Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO). This paper proposes an idea of DevOps -Infrastructure as a code (IaaC) disaster recovery management using Terraform and Ansible. In this study, Terraform and Ansible templates are developed to build single and Multi-Cloud Infrastructure based on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Our main aim is to study the process of automated disaster recovery during an emergency, along with the total time taken to bring up the services to regular operation. The study compares the automatic concept with manual actions taken during the recovery period and shows the benefits of using IaaC.
