Description: Multi-Region Failover is a feature of cloud-based traffic management systems that allows redirecting user traffic to a different region in case the primary region experiences a failure. This functionality is crucial for maintaining the availability and resilience of geographically distributed applications. By implementing this feature, organizations can ensure that their services remain accessible even if one of the regions is down. Such systems use a constant monitoring mechanism to detect failures in the primary region’s instances and, if an issue arises, automatically redirect traffic to a secondary region that is operational. This not only enhances user experience by minimizing downtime but also allows businesses to meet their service level agreements (SLAs) by ensuring their applications are always available. Multi-Region Failover is particularly relevant for companies operating globally that require a robust and reliable infrastructure to support their critical operations.
