Disaster Recovery in the Cloud
Partner with Xynomix to maximise uptime with cloud-based disaster recovery
Designing and delivering bespoke DR in cloud platforms for your SQL Server and Oracle databases
When it comes to critical SQL Server and Oracle database environments, ensuring business continuity is paramount. Disasters can strike in many forms, and often occur in the face of unexpected events. Whether it’s hardware failures and cyberattacks, or natural calamities – without a robust cloud DR strategy, your business could face significant downtime and data loss.
At Xynomix, we understand that there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for disaster recovery. That’s why we don’t just offer a standard solution. Instead, we provide expert consultancy to help you build a bespoke strategy for disaster recovery in the cloud. And as a cloud agnostic provider, we’re able to ensure solutions are tailored to the specific needs of your business.
Why is cloud disaster recovery important?
The importance of disaster recovery in the cloud cannot be overstated
Human error accounts for approximately 80% of database downtime incidents. This includes misconfigurations, outdated software, or unreliable backup media. On top of this, cyber threats pose an increasing risk. Therefore, a comprehensive cloud DR strategy is a critical component of your overall risk management and business continuity plan. DR in the cloud provides an additional layer of security and redundancy, safeguarding your data and ensuring uninterrupted operations, even in the face of significant threats.

Cloud disaster recovery for SQL Server environments
Resilient cloud disaster recovery solutions for all SQL Server environments
From Standard to Enterprise Edition. Cloud DR strategies for SQL Server can leverage powerful native Azure tools and services to enhance resilience. For SQL Server Standard Edition, while Basic Availability Groups offer some mirroring capabilities, for comprehensive cloud disaster recovery, especially across multiple databases or into the cloud, more robust solutions are often needed. Traditional log shipping remains an effective method for reliable data protection in hybrid environments.
Trusted cloud DR solutions, even for complex SQL Server configurations
For more advanced needs, expertise in deploying and supporting Always On Availability Groups enables safeguarding multiple databases with advanced replication and failover capabilities within the cloud. Solutions like Azure Site Recovery, Azure SQL Managed Instance, and Azure SQL Database’s built-in DR capabilities (such as geo-replication and auto-failover groups) can be expertly integrated into your cloud-based DR strategy.
For cost-effective SQL Server Standard Edition cloud DR, Dbvisit StandbyMP provides enhanced resilience and automation compared to basic availability groups and log shipping, allowing you to achieve reliable disaster recovery without an Enterprise Edition upgrade.
Cloud disaster recovery for Oracle databases
Resilient cloud disaster recovery solutions for all versions
Realise the full potential of cloud-based disaster recovery for your Oracle databases, whether you’re running Standard Edition (SE2) or Enterprise Edition (EE). Cloud DR strategies can reside entirely within the cloud, leveraging powerful native tools to enhance resilience. For Oracle EE, expertise in Oracle Data Guard ensures the creation and maintenance of synchronised standby databases, enabling swift failover.
Cost effective cloud DR for Oracle database technology
For Oracle SE2, where critical Data Guard functionality is exclusive to EE, solutions like Dbvisit StandbyMP offer a proven and cost-effective way to achieve reliable cloud disaster recovery without a costly upgrade.
These cloud DR solutions for Oracle ensure seamless integration and optimal performance, whether you’re seeking a hybrid approach or a fully cloud-native deployment within cloud platforms like Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
