Abstract

Techniques are provided for on-demand serverless disaster recovery. A primary node may host a primary volume. Snapshots of the primary volume may be backed up to an object store. In response to failure, a secondary node and/or an on-demand volume may be created on-demand. The secondary node may provide clients with failover access to the on-demand volume while a restore process restores a snapshot of the primary volume to the on-demand volume. In some embodiments, there was no secondary node and/or on-demand volume while the primary node was operational. This conserves computing resources that would be wasted by otherwise hosting the secondary node and/or on-demand volume while clients were able to access the primary volume through the primary node. Modifications directed to the on-demand volume are incrementally backed up to the object store for subsequently restoring the primary volume after recovery.
