ARC Region switch adds Amazon Aurora scaling and Amazon Neptune global database failover
Amazon Application Recovery Controller (ARC) Region switch helps customers orchestrate the failover of their multi-Region applications to achieve a bounded recovery time in the event of a Regional impairment. Today, we are announcing three new execution blocks — the Amazon Aurora serverless scaling execution block, the Amazon Aurora provisioned scaling execution block, and the Amazon Neptune global database failover execution block — which automate database scaling and failover for multi-Region workloads.
