Built to survive failure — and prove it.
When a datacenter, a service, or an entire region goes down, your business keeps running — and you can show your regulator exactly how. We design, build, and test the ability to survive an outage, with recovery times you can measure.
Two numbers run through everything here.
How fast you're back.
How much data you'd lose.
Every engagement starts by defining them and ends by proving them. They're the thread through assessment, build, testing and training — not a line you add at the end.
Resilience is two things: staying up, and coming back.
STAY UP
High Availability
Redundancy, no single point of failure, automatic failover. The system absorbs a component loss without going down.
COME BACK
Disaster Recovery
Backup, replication, multi-site restore — with measurable RTO/RPO. When something does go down, you recover to a known state, on a known clock.
We design for both. And we're clear on what this isn't: absorbing expected load — scaling and tuning — is a performance question, not a resilience one.
What we deliver
Four ways to engage — applied to recovery
The same lifecycle as everywhere at G2F — assessment, build, operations, training — focused on one question: can you survive an outage and prove it?
01
Assess · DR & Resilience Readiness Assessment Entry point
Most teams can't say how long it would take to recover. That's the first thing we measure.
You get an independent map of your resilience posture:
- Backup coverage, single points of failure, and critical dependencies, surfaced.
- Real vs target RTO/RPO per critical service.
- A gap analysis against CNCF/SRE best practice and DORA resilience-testing requirements — plus ISO 22301 and EBA ICT guidelines for banks.
- A prioritized DR roadmap: immediate, short-term, medium-term.
Fixed scope, vendor-neutral.
For both motions: the lowest-barrier way in — for a scaleup and an enterprise alike.
02
Implement · From design to running recovery
Recovery shouldn't depend on a runbook someone wrote two years ago — and never tested.
- DR Design & Implementation — multi-site (on-prem → backup → cloud-on-demand). Recovery built on GitOps/IaC: Git as the source of truth, the cluster re-provisioned from Git state, an automated restore flow (Terraform → Kubernetes setup → service restore → DNS failover), with measured RTO.
- Storage DR — Cloud Restore pattern, snapshot / async replication, three-datacenter topology (metro sync + DR async).
- Backup Architecture — immutable, audit-ready (SeaweedFS / S3 WORM / Veeam). Pull-model backup that isolates the copy from compromised production — ransomware and cyber-recovery — with optional clean-room restore.
- High Availability (the stay-up layer) — database HA (MariaDB, pg_auto_failover), service-level HA, removing single points of failure.
We don't hand over a backup we haven't restored. Every build ships with at least one validated restore.
Enterprise: full multi-site, storage DR and regulator documentation. Scaleup: DR consulting for cloud-managed (e.g. Azure) services.
03
Operate · DR Testing as a Service
A DR plan you've never tested is a hypothesis, not a plan.
You get:
- Scheduled DR drills.
- Actual vs target RTO, measured.
- A regulator-ready test report — DORA mandates periodic operational resilience testing.
- Updated runbooks.
We cover the recovery and resilience side of DORA testing — drills, scenario testing, recovery validation. Threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) sits with a specialist security partner.
Primarily enterprise (a DORA obligation), and scaleup (peace of mind).
04
Train · DR Drill & Operational Resilience Workshop
The goal isn't a 3 a.m. call to us. It's that you never have to make one.
You get:
- A hands-on DR drill — your ops team runs a restore from the playbook, supervised.
- DORA resilience-testing enablement — how to design, run and document a testing program.
- SRE / resilience basics — failure-mode thinking, SLI/SLO/error budgets, blameless postmortems, an optional chaos-engineering intro (LitmusChaos).
- Workshop and certificate.
Enterprise: DORA-driven. Scaleup: building an SRE culture.
Built for regulated environments
Under DORA, operational resilience testing isn't a nice-to-have — it's required. Our Operate and Train services address it directly: drills you can schedule, results you can measure, reports your regulator will accept. And all of it is vendor-neutral — the tooling follows your existing estate, not our preferences.
Honest about the edges
Where this stops — on purpose
We'd rather be precise than oversell. This domain is recovery and resilience — not everything next to it.
- Threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) — handled by a specialist security partner.
- Perimeter network security (firewalls, WAF) as a standalone service.
- Application architecture (microservices / API redesign).
- Pure ITSM / business-continuity process without a technical layer. Our DR-test evidence does plug into your BCM and operational-resilience governance — we don't run the org process, we feed it with proof.
- Predictable-load scaling and performance tuning — that's a performance question, handled elsewhere.
Delivered in production
Where we've done this
Recovery we've designed, built and tested for regulated payment and banking environments.
- KvaPay (regulated payment platform) — full DR: multi-site, automated restore, DNS failover; a measured DR-test RTO under two hours, documented for the regulator. Immutable backup (S3 WORM), database HA.
- VÚB (bank) — storage DR: Cloud Restore pattern, snapshot replication, three-datacenter topology.
- SoftPoint (Flowis SaaS platform) — DR strategy for cloud-managed (Azure) services.
"Their team guided us through the analysis and design process, helping us transform those ideas into a robust, well-structured solution perfectly tailored to our needs. We see Grow2FIT as a reliable long-term partner bringing valuable experience and structure to our projects."

Most teams can't put a number on their recovery time. That's where we start.
A readiness assessment maps where you stand — against best practice and DORA. Fixed scope, vendor-neutral. Most first conversations take 30 minutes. No pitch, no deck.
