A system and method includes a plurality of nodes distributed between a first cluster and a second cluster, each of the plurality of nodes storing a copy of a source database and a processor executing computer-readable instructions stored on a memory to designate a first node of the plurality of nodes as a primary node, designate remaining ones of the plurality of nodes as secondary nodes to take over from the primary node upon failure of the primary node, designate a second node of the plurality of nodes as an initial active node, backup the source database from the initial active node, automatically designate, based on a switch over policy, a third node of the plurality of nodes as a next active node upon the initial active node becoming unavailable, and continue backups of the source database from the next active node upon the initial active node becoming unavailable.
