Embodiment Construction

[0020] As described above, aspects of the present invention provide solutions for implementing application disaster recovery. Select an app's subscription backup site from multiple sites. The selected site will have a virtual space that can accommodate the application's workload requirements. Apps can run in hibernation by being compressed on site. In the dormant state, the application has a small amount of necessary resources allocated to it. Later, when disaster recovery is required, the application is executed on the subscribing backup site by allocating resources to inflate the application on the subscribing backup site.

[0021] Referring now to the accompanying drawings, figure 1 An example environment 100 is shown for implementing disaster recovery of applications 182 . To this end, environment 100 includes computer system 102 that performs the processes described herein to enable disaster recovery of applications 182 . In particular, computer system 102 is shown i...

Abstract

Aspects of the present invention provide a solution for implementing disaster recovery for an application. A subscription backup site for the application is selected from among a plurality of sites. The site that is selected will have a virtual space that is able to accommodate the workload requirements for the application. The application is deflated on the site in such as way as to operate in a dormant state. In the dormant state, the application has a small fraction of its required resources allocated to it. Thereafter, when disaster recovery is needed, the application can be inflated on the subscription backup site by allocating resources to enable the application to execute on the subscription backup site.

Description

technical field [0001] The subject matter of the present invention generally relates to computer application hosting. More specifically, aspects of the invention relate to solutions for implementing application disaster recovery. Background technique [0002] A computer application is a piece of computer software that helps its user perform a task or several related tasks. In today's electronic environment, these applications are often provided in a manner that can be accessed by a large number of users. To accomplish this, an application provider may host the application at a specific location accessible over a network (eg, a local area network or a wide area network such as the Internet). [0003] When hosting an application, the provider generally wants to achieve a state where the application is continuously available to users. However, from time to time issues arise that disrupt availability. For example, catastrophic disasters such as earthquakes, fires, etc. may o...
