Mission critical signaling failover in cloud computing ecosystem

A system comprising:

• one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
• identifying alarm events detected at monitored properties by monitoring systems that are located at the monitored properties and that include at least one sensor within the monitored properties;
• tracking the ability of a primary application infrastructure to transmit, to a central monitoring station server, the alarm events detected by the monitoring systems;
• detecting disruption in the ability of the primary application infrastructure to transmit the alarm events detected by the monitoring systems to the central monitoring station server, comprising:
• exchanging, between the primary application infrastructure and secondary application infrastructure, alarm events received by the primary application infrastructure and secondary application infrastructure;
• comparing the exchanged alarm events to determine whether the alarm events received by the primary application infrastructure and secondary application infrastructure are the same;
• and
• in response to determining that the alarm events received by the primary application infrastructure are not the same as the alarm events received by the secondary application infrastructure, detecting disruption in the ability of the primary application infrastructure to transmit the alarm events detected by the monitoring systems to the central monitoring station server;
• based on the detected disruption, enabling a signal transmission switch that switches a path for alarm events detected by the monitoring systems from the primary application infrastructure to a secondary application infrastructure, the secondary application infrastructure being an infrastructure operated by a cloud service provider;
• and
• based on enablement of the transmission switch, transmitting, by the secondary application infrastructure, at least one alarm event detected by the monitoring systems to the central monitoring station server.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software comprising instructions executable by one or more computers which, upon such execution, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

• identifying alarm events detected at monitored properties by monitoring systems that are located at the monitored properties and that include at least one sensor within the monitored properties;
• tracking the ability of a primary application infrastructure to transmit, to a central monitoring station server, the alarm events detected by the monitoring systems;
• detecting disruption in the ability of the primary application infrastructure to transmit the alarm events detected by the monitoring systems to the central monitoring station server, comprising:
• exchanging, between the primary application infrastructure and secondary application infrastructure, alarm events received by the primary application infrastructure and secondary application infrastructure;
• comparing the exchanged alarm events to determine whether the alarm events received by the primary application infrastructure and secondary application infrastructure are the same;

• based on the detected disruption, enabling a signal transmission switch that switches a path for alarm events detected by the monitoring systems from the primary application infrastructure to a secondary application infrastructure, the secondary application infrastructure being an infrastructure operated by a cloud service provider;
