Intro
Business continuity refers to the ability that a particular business can overcome potentially disruptive events with minimal impact in its operations. This no small ordeal requires the definition, implementation of plans, processes and systems while involving complete collaboration and synchronization between multiple actors and departments.
This collection of assets and processes compose the company’s Disaster Recovery. Its goal is to reduce the downtime and data loss in the case of a catastrophic, unforeseen situation. Disaster Recovery needs answer two questions:
- How much data can we lose? - Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
- How long can we take to recover the system? - Recovery Time Objective (RTO)

Astronetes Disaster Recovery Operator provides a solution to improve the business continuity of a Cloud Native Platform by offering a Disaster Recovery tool that is transparent in day-to-day operations while having minimal impact in technical maintenance.
By syncing the two clusters in real time, the RPO is minimal. Astronetes Disaster Recovery Operator does not depend on system backups or tools external to the Kubernetes ecosystem.
And with an accessible component to resume operations, the RTO can be substantially reduced in comparison with alternatives that depend on backups stored outside Kubernetes.
