AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery now supports Flexible Instance Types launch setting
News
The article introduces AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery's new Flexible Instance Types launch setting, designed to reduce failed recovery attempts and downtime due to capacity shortages. This new feature allows you to create a list of optional instance types with specific attributes that can be used during a launch.
Specifically, the article covers:
- AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) minimizes downtime and data loss for on-premises and cloud applications through fast and reliable recovery.
- Previously, customers could only define a single instance type or rely on automatic right-sizing, which risked unavailability during disasters.
- With Flexible Instance Types, you can define a range of acceptable instance attributes to maximize the chances of successful provisioning, even when many resource types are unavailable due to high demand.
- This new capability is available in all AWS Regions where AWS DRS is offered.
