And with Pure Storage’s shared-NVRAM approach, this makes controller failover events completely non-disruptive. And while all front-end ports on a FlashArray system are active, only one controller is actively processing IO at any given time. This approach guarantees consistent 100% performance , even in controller failure scenarios.

All requests are now switched to be routed there in a process called “failover.” For tighter RTO/RPO objectives, the data is maintained live, and the infrastructure is fully or partially deployed in the recovery site before failover. Before failover, the infrastructure must scale up to meet production needs.
