Abstract

Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for implementing a smart failover module is disclosed. A processor detects an application specific system fault or degradation event in a first availability zone (AZ) on which an application is running during normal runtime of the application; determines, in response to detecting the application specific system fault or degradation event, whether the application includes an active-passive application infrastructure in which the first AZ is paired with a passive AZ; enables traffic, in connection with running or deployment of the application, on the passive availability zone in response to determining that the application includes an active-passive application infrastructure; and disables traffic from the first AZ on which the application specific system fault or degradation has been detected in response to determining that the application does not include an active-passive application infrastructure and/or in response to enabling traffic on the passive AZ.
