Availability is not resilience, and SLAs are not strategy. Ataides helps organizations assess and strengthen their cloud environments for real-world disruption, ensuring continuity with precision, visibility, and accountability.
Objectives of Resilience & Continuity Readiness
The objective of the Business Continuity & RTO/RPO Cloud-Based Assessment is to:
- Evaluate the resilience of your cloud architecture beyond SLAs and assumptions.
- Map the recovery time (RTO) and data loss tolerance (RPO) of each critical service.
- Provide an actionable plan to reduce downtime risk and improve response readiness.
Resilience Assessment
We conduct a structured technical evaluation of your:
- Backup frequency, encryption, and multi-region durability
- Disaster recovery posture (warm, cold, multi-zone, multi-cloud)
- Auto-scaling, failover orchestration, and traffic shifting
- State handling for databases, queues, and persistent volumes
- Automated vs. manual recovery pipelines
- Dependencies: DNS, identity, secrets, monitoring
Uptime means little if recovery takes hours or data is lost.
RTO/RPO Modeling
We help define and validate recovery expectations, tolerances, and impact trade-offs:
- RTO (Recovery Time Objective): how long can services be down?
- RPO (Recovery Point Objective): how much data can be lost?
- Critical vs. non-critical services
- Acceptable trade-offs for cost vs. availability
- Visual impact matrix and dependency mapping
Optional: simulation scenarios or table-top exercises.
Deliverables
You’ll receive a detailed continuity package including:
- Architecture review with resilience scoring
- RTO/RPO mapping per service/component
- Risk matrix of current state vs. business requirements
- Recommendations for architecture or process improvement
- Optional: response playbooks or DR test templates
Strategic Impact
- Reduced downtime risk and business interruption
- Clear understanding of what’s recoverable — and how fast
- Foundation for ISO 22301, SOC 2 Availability Principle, or board-level reporting
- Increased confidence across technical and executive stakeholders
True continuity isn’t about luck, it’s engineered into the architecture.
