In a system having at least two data storage and processing sites, each capable of alternatively serving as a primary site and a backup or target site, disaster recovery migration is optimized by cognitively analyzing at least one system parameter. Using machine learning, at least one pattern of that system related parameter is predicted, and planned or unplanned migration procedures are performed based on the predicted parameter patterns. The analyzed parameter may be data traffic at the sites, and the predicted data traffic pattern is used to assign primary and backup site status to those sites. The analyzed parameter may be the occurrence of events or transactions at the sites, and the predicted event or transaction patterns may be used to determine times of disaster recovery procedure processing so as to not interrupt a critical event or transaction.
