G.O.D. Framework

Script: ai_disaster_recovery.py - Disaster Recovery and Continuity Module

Introduction

The ai_disaster_recovery.py module ensures the resilience and continuity of the G.O.D Framework in the event of system failures, unexpected disasters, or data breaches. This script focuses on implementing fail-safes to prevent data loss, operational interruptions, and complete system failures when adverse events occur.

With robust mechanisms for real-time backups, recovery orchestration, and failure detection, this module integrates tightly with other G.O.D. systems, ensuring sustained performance and availability.

Purpose

Key Features

Logic and Implementation

The ai_disaster_recovery.py script coordinates disaster recovery procedures through real-time system monitoring, data snapshot management, and failover mechanisms. It ensures the system's state is continuously preserved, and recovery procedures are followed based on configuration rules and event triggers.

An outline of its implementation is presented below:

Dependencies

The module uses the following dependencies:

Usage

The ai_disaster_recovery.py script can be used as follows:

  1. Set up a directory path for backups and define a retention policy.
  2. Invoke the create_backup method, providing the source directory for snapshots.
  3. Use the restore_backup method to restore from a specific snapshot.
  4. Ensure the script runs periodically or under specific triggers.

            recovery = DisasterRecovery(backup_dir="/ai_system_backups", retention_policy=7)
            recovery.create_backup("/ai_system_data")
            recovery.restore_backup("backup_20231101_123000", "/ai_recovery_data")
