About Acronis Disaster Recovery

Acronis Disaster Recovery is a part of Cyber Protection that provides disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS). Disaster Recovery is a fast and stable solution that, in the event of a man-made or natural disaster, launches recovery servers (exact copies of your local servers) on the disaster recovery (DR) site.

The DR site is a secondary location that ensures that IT operations are restored and continue if the primary site fails. In such a case, DR switches the workloads from the corrupted original machines to the recovery servers at the DR site. The DR site includes the cloud servers and the cloud connectivity (cloud networks).

The DR site can be located in Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud or Microsoft Azure. The availability of the DR site locations depends on the offering items that are enabled for your tenant.

The DR site is located in AcronisCyber Protect Cloud.

Only one location is supported per customer tenant. If you want to change the location of your DR site, you must first remove the existing configuration, and then create a new one with the new location.

This feature is not supported on Windows workloads that run on ARM64 processors.
