A healthcare provider had no tested disaster recovery for its core systems. We built a cross region DR posture on OCI with a recovery time objective of 15 minutes and a proven failover.
The provider ran clinical systems that had to be available, but its disaster recovery plan existed only on paper. Backups were taken, yet no one had proven a recovery inside a time the business could survive. A regional outage would have meant hours of downtime for systems that clinicians depended on.
They needed a tested DR posture with a recovery time measured in minutes, and they needed evidence that it actually worked.
The design put a warm standby in a second region and automated the failover, so recovery time came from engineering rather than hope.
| Element | What we used | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Standby region | Second OCI region | Survives a full regional outage |
| Database replication | Data Guard | Consistent, low lag standby for fast failover |
| Failover | Automated runbook | Recovery does not depend on one person being available |
| Assurance | Scheduled DR tests | Proves the recovery time stays inside target |
Running and testing the DR posture after it is built.
