AKS - Recovery Services-Tresors

Question

Hello Azure-Community,

Can I use a Recovery Services vault for my Kubernetes cluster? I want my cluster to be hosted in another region in case of failure.

Kind regards

@Pablo S Please find information on BCDR with AKS here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/operator-best-practices-multi-region. In addition, there are a number of ISV solutions that provide BCDR capabilities.

Listing a few here:

1. Portworx, refer to this link
2. Kasten, offers a very convenient GUI
3. You may also want to look into Velero as it can protect both Kubernetes objects and the underlying persistent volumes. It can also sync Kubernetes objects to a secondary cluster but that may be better served in your deployment pipeline. More details on Velero are here: https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero-plugin-for-microsoft-azure/blob/master/README.md.
