Therefore, if you’re designing a DR strategy to withstand events such as power outages, flooding, and other other localized disruptions, then using a Multi-AZ DR strategy within an AWS Region can provide the protection you need. All requests are now switched to be routed there in a process called “failover.” Backup and restore.
