The Storage Architecture Spectrum: Why “Shared-nothing” Means Nothing by Pure Storage Blog This blog on the storage architecture spectrum is Part 2 of a five-part series diving into the claims of new data storage platforms. And with Pure Storage’s shared-NVRAM approach, this makes controller failover events completely non-disruptive.

In the cloud, everything is thick provisioned and you pay separately for capacity and performance. You can update the software on controller 2, then failover so that it’s active. Then, you can update VM 1 with non-disruptive upgrades and within failover timeouts. You also have thin provisioning, dedupe, and compression.

Health checks are necessary for configuring DNS failover within Route 53. Once an application or resource becomes unhealthy, you’ll need to initiate a manual failover process to create resources in the secondary Region. Route 53 health checks monitor the health and performance of your web applications, web servers, and other resources.

In this blog post, we share a reference architecture that uses a multi-Region active/passive strategy to implement a hot standby strategy for disaster recovery (DR). With the multi-Region active/passive strategy, your workloads operate in primary and secondary Regions with full capacity. Amazon RDS database.

In this blog post, you will learn about two more active/passive strategies that enable your workload to recover from disaster events such as natural disasters, technical failures, or human actions. The left AWS Region is the primary Region that is active, and the right Region is the recovery Region that is passive before failover.

In Part I of this two-part blog , we outlined best practices to consider when building resilient applications in hybrid on-premises/cloud environments. During failover, scale up resources and increase traffic to the Region. This pattern works well for applications that must respond quickly but don’t need immediate full capacity.

When most storage vendors talk about non-disruptive upgrade (NDU) they’re focusing on software upgrades, or adding storage capacity to an existing storage array. Pairing the FlashArray’s architecture with the Purity operating environment, which handles dynamic controller failovers, allows the controllers to be completely transparent.
