What are the Components of Azure Site Recovery?
- Site Recovery Service: This component helps maintain business continuity by replicating workloads running on physical and virtual machines (VMs) from a primary site to a secondary location (such as another data center or Azure region). In the event of an outage at the primary site, the service enables a failover to the secondary location, allowing access to applications from there. Once the primary location is operational again, you can fail back to it.
- Backup Service: Azure Backup service is another component of Azure Site Recovery, primarily focused on ensuring the safe storage and recoverability of data.
