What this programme actually delivered.

90 minutes

RTO for crown clinical workloads: under 90 minutes

15 minutes

RPO: under 15 minutes for critical clinical data

The challenge

A health system’s clinical workloads couldn’t accept single-cloud-vendor risk. Existing DR was a colocation site with 24h RTO — unacceptable for clinical operations.

What we built

Azure primary + AWS DR with cross-cloud replication. Workload-specific RTO/RPO targets enforced as code. Quarterly failover drills. Clinical-workload prioritization framework.

Outcomes

RTO for crown clinical workloads: under 90 minutes
RPO: under 15 minutes for critical clinical data
Cloud-vendor concentration risk: addressed
Quarterly drills: validation of actual recovery (not theoretical)
