Summary
In this chapter, we learned about various aspects of securing and backing up critical data. We learned about a variety of AWS services that can be used to create a layered backup strategy, how we can adopt a multi-region approach to increase data availability, various automation techniques that can be used for backup, and best practices for DR. This information will be useful for developers and architects to design infrastructure and applications that adopt security best practices for data access and also design systems that can take advantage of data-resilient backend systems.
In the following chapter, we will learn about how you can design systems that handle failure gracefully in such a manner that the failure is not directly exposed to the end user, resulting in business impact and customer satisfaction challenges.
