On August 1, 2025, we announced that Amazon Application Recovery Controller (ARC) now supports switching AWS Regions for multi-Region application recovery. This automated feature allows you to orchestrate the specific steps to switch operating your multi-Region application out of another AWS Region. This saves hours of engineering effort and eliminates the operational overhead previously required to complete failover steps, create custom dashboards, and manually gather evidence of a successful recovery. In this video, we'll show you how to build a Region switch plan using the ARC console, API, or CLI, create the specific workflow required to recover your applications in another Region, and use the ARC dashboard to monitor your applications’ recovery.
