Automating Disaster Recovery with Aura API
summary
Altrata automates Neo4j disaster recovery on Aura by wrapping the Aura API into one-click workflows: a GitHub Actions flow lists hourly snapshots, runs an authenticated snapshot restore for production, and enforces approval gates and audit logs. For DR they resume a paused replica to save cost, then use the resume endpoint plus polling and an instance overwrite endpoint to copy a snapshot across. The graph is large—about 9 million nodes and 700 million relationships—while Datadog metrics and LaunchDarkly feature flags trigger a kill‑switch and automated failover.
