HA and DR configurations in Azure - Windows

InfoScale Enterprise lets you configure applications for high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) in Azure cloud environment.

For more information on the supported use cases, read the following topics:

InfoScale Enterprise provides the AzureIP agent and the Azure DNS zone agent to manage the network resources for cluster communication, failover, and failback. These agents monitor and manage the IP resources within cluster nodes in the Azure cloud. The AzureAuth agent handles the Azure related authentication. For more information on the agents, see Cluster Server Bundled Agents Reference Guide - Windows.

Note:

Azure recommends that you configure Azure VMs in the same Availability Set to ensure that at least one node from the cluster is always operational.

In an Azure environment, application data is stored on the Azure data disks that are attached to the Azure virtual machines. The AzureDisk agent provides high availability of the Azure disks during fail-over of an application. This agent supports high availability of managed and unmanaged disks.

VCS lets you configure replication between Azure virtual machines, which is further used to support various HA and DR scenarios for applications in Azure cloud.

For more information on the supported replication configurations in Azure, see the following documents:
