Abstract

A method and system for providing failovers for a primary cloud-based computing environment (CBCE) residing in a first cloud environment. The method includes gathering information with respect to the primary CBCE; storing the gathered information in a storage space; updating the stored information based on at least one change with respect to the primary CBCE; determining, based on at least one status received from the primary CBCE, whether a failover is required for the primary CBCE; and initiating a reconstruction of the primary CBCE in a second cloud environment, when it is determined that a failover is required for the primary CBCE, wherein the reconstruction of the CBCE is based on the stored information.
