NEXT – GEN DISASTER RECOVERY IN HYBRID CLOUD ENVIRONMENTS: IMPLEMENTING HIGH AVAILABILITY STRATEGIES USING VEEAM

Abstract

In order to guarantee high availability (HA) and business continuity, this study investigated the application of next-generation disaster recovery (DR) solutions in hybrid cloud systems utilizing Veeam technology. To test Veeam's ability to manage severe failure scenarios, a simulated hybrid architecture that combined on-premise systems with public cloud platforms (AWS and Azure) was set up. Several setups were used to measure important metrics including Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO). The findings showed how Veeam's orchestration, replication, and instant recovery capabilities greatly improved catastrophe resilience by facilitating quick system recovery and minimizing data loss. Furthermore, IT administrators expressed great satisfaction with usability evaluations, pointing to centralized monitoring and smooth integration as key benefits. These results demonstrate Veeam's efficacy as a strong option for contemporary enterprise disaster recovery in hybrid settings.
