Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products that can pre-emptively swap operations of a data production site to a disaster recovery (DR) site. A method includes providing, by a processor, one or more weighting factors to a set of metrics for an event occurring at a data production site based on information related to the event, analyzing the set of metrics based on the one or more weighting factors, and generating a recommendation related to swapping operations from the data production site to a DR site based on the analysis. Systems and computer program products for performing the above method are also provided.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a weighting module that provides one or more weighting factors to a set of metrics for an event occurring at a data production site based on information related to the event;
- an analysis module that analyzes the set of metrics based on the one or more weighting factors;
- and
- a pre-emptive module that generates a recommendation related to swapping operations from the data production site to a disaster recovery site based on the analysis,
- wherein at least a portion of said modules comprise one or more of hardware circuits, a programmable hardware device, and executable code stored on one or more computer-readable storage media.
A method, comprising:
- providing, by a processor, one or more weighting factors to a set of metrics for an event occurring at a data production site based on information related to the event;
- analyzing the set of metrics based on the one or more weighting factors;
- and
- generating a recommendation related to swapping operations from the data production site to a disaster recovery site based on the analysis.
A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium including program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
- provide one or more weighting factors to a set of metrics for an event occurring at a data production site based on information related to the event;
- analyze the set of metrics based on the one or more weighting factors;
- and
- generate a recommendation related to swapping operations from the data production site to a disaster recovery site based on the analysis.
