Abstract
In general, this disclosure describes techniques for coordinating, with a cloud exchange, automated cloud-based disaster recovery across containers from a failed cloud service to a backup cloud service. In some examples, an orchestration engine for a cloud exchange is configured to: detect an indication of a disruption in a first cloud service provided by a first cloud service provider network coupled to the cloud exchange to send and receive data packets via the cloud exchange; provision, in response to detecting the indication of the disruption in the first cloud service, disaster recovery infrastructure layers in containers of a second cloud service provided by a second cloud service provider network coupled to the cloud exchange; obtain code and state from containers of the first cloud service; and communicate the code and state to the disaster recovery infrastructure layers in the containers of the second cloud service.
