Continuity
Resilience planning
Recovery objectives are only credible if they have been rehearsed. Each scenario below records a target, a runbook and the outcome of a simulated drill, including where the drill fell short. No drill was run against a real system.

Replication channels
Lag budgets modelled on log-based CDC and physical standby patterns. GoldenGate, ODI and Data Guard are referenced as architecture concepts — nothing here is a live feed.
| Channel | Pattern | Lag | Budget | Ops/sec | Conflicts 24h | State |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ledger primary → reporting standbyOLTPPRD (simulated) → RPTSTB (simulated) | Log-based CDC (GoldenGate-style architecture concept) | 4s | 30s (13%) | 12,400 | 0 | within budget |

Design principles
- Pipelines checkpoint watermarks so a restart never double-loads or skips a window.
- Every load is idempotent: re-running a batch converges to the same result.
- Recovery prefers partition-level repair over full-database restore.
- Backups are proven by restore rehearsal, never by job exit codes alone.
- Drill notes record shortfalls openly and convert them into scheduled work.
- Capacity headroom is tested with replayed surge volume, not extrapolated.
