# Disaster Recovery Procedures
**Last Updated**: 2025-01-27
**Status**: Production Ready
## Overview
This document outlines disaster recovery (DR) procedures for The Order platform, including Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO).
## RTO/RPO Definitions
- **RTO (Recovery Time Objective)**: 4 hours
- Maximum acceptable downtime
- Time to restore service after a disaster
- **RPO (Recovery Point Objective)**: 1 hour
- Maximum acceptable data loss
- Time between backups
## Backup Strategy
### Database Backups
- **Full Backups**: Daily at 02:00 UTC
- **Incremental Backups**: Hourly
- **Retention**: 30 days for full backups, 7 days for incremental
- **Location**: Primary region + cross-region replication
### Storage Backups
- **Object Storage**: Cross-region replication enabled
- **WORM Storage**: Immutable, no deletion possible
- **Backup Frequency**: Real-time replication
### Configuration Backups
- **Infrastructure**: Version controlled in Git
- **Secrets**: Stored in Azure Key Vault with backup
- **Kubernetes Manifests**: Version controlled
## Recovery Procedures
### Database Recovery
1. **Identify latest backup**
```bash
ls -lt /backups/full_backup_*.sql.gz | head -1
```
2. **Restore database**
```bash
gunzip < backup_file.sql.gz | psql $DATABASE_URL
```
3. **Apply incremental backups** (if needed)
```bash
for backup in incremental_backup_*.sql.gz; do
gunzip < $backup | psql $DATABASE_URL
done
```
### Service Recovery
1. **Restore from Git**
```bash
git checkout <last-known-good-commit>
```
2. **Rebuild and deploy**
```bash
pnpm build
kubectl apply -k infra/k8s/overlays/prod
```
3. **Verify health**
```bash
kubectl get pods -n the-order-prod
kubectl logs -f <pod-name> -n the-order-prod
```
### Full Disaster Recovery
1. **Assess situation**
- Identify affected components
- Determine scope of disaster
- Notify stakeholders
2. **Activate DR site** (if primary region unavailable)
- Switch DNS to DR region
- Start services in DR region
- Restore from backups
3. **Data recovery**
- Restore database from latest backup
- Restore object storage from replication
- Verify data integrity
4. **Service restoration**
- Deploy all services
- Verify connectivity
- Run health checks
5. **Validation**
- Test critical workflows
- Verify data consistency
- Monitor for issues
6. **Communication**
- Update status page
- Notify users
- Document incident
## DR Testing
### Quarterly DR Tests
- Test database restore
- Test service recovery
- Test full DR procedure
- Document results
### Test Scenarios
1. **Database corruption**: Restore from backup
2. **Region failure**: Failover to DR region
3. **Service failure**: Restore from Git + redeploy
4. **Data loss**: Restore from backups
## Monitoring and Alerts
- **Backup failures**: Alert immediately
- **Replication lag**: Alert if > 5 minutes
- **Service health**: Alert if any service down
- **Storage usage**: Alert if > 80% capacity
