This coverage includes environments built on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), as well as workloads running on the Fargate compute engine.

Arpio’s easy-to-configure SaaS solution allows you to achieve cross-region, cross-account recovery capability for your entire ECS-based workload, with just an hour of set up time. There are no agents to install, no servers to manage, and there is no engineering required.

A Solution That Natively Understands How to Back Up and Restore Amazon Web Services

While traditional backup solutions focus solely on your data, Arpio knows that your cloud-hosted applications are more than just your datasets. Our software was designed to protect your entire AWS infrastructure from catastrophic downtime.

Arpio is built on AWS and with AWS best practices in mind, and takes a holistic view of your workloads. In the case of ECS, our software will capture all of the resources that participate in your containerized workload, including the latest data, configuration details, and dependencies of your ECS clusters.

Continuous Data Loss Protection for Your Entire ECS Architecture

Arpio is designed to continuously backup and replicate your entire environment, so that you can recover quickly in the case of a disaster.

For an ECS workload, Arpio will automatically discover and backup the ECS Services, Clusters, Task Sets and Task Definitions in your environment. Arpio will also capture all of the dependencies that those services rely on, such as VPC networking, load balancing, autoscaling, security settings, roles & policies, and everything else that is needed to run your entire environment.

Arpio also supports Elastic Container Registry (ECR), so that any dependent container images stored in ECR will be discovered and backed up.

Securely Automate ECS Recovery After an Outage

Arpio’s customers trust us to keep their applications protected and secure. That’s why we have developed the industry’s leading security model among SaaS backup solutions.

Arpio follows AWS’s best practices for connecting to your environment. Once connected, our application cannot see your data, take data out of your account, or do anything destructive in your production environment. Your applications will always remain secure, because Arpio does not need privileged access to them in order to protect them.

A Powerful Tool for Cloud Compliance

Your customers rely on you to deliver a product of the highest quality and maximum service levels, often with the validation of a 3rd party compliance audit. Whether you are pursuing SOC 2, HiTrust, ISO-27001 or some other security framework, Arpio can help you to easily meet your disaster recovery requirement for your ECS-based workloads. You can also use Arpio’s automation to quickly test your recovery and capture evidence of those tests for auditors.

How to Protect Your AWS Elastic Container Service Assets in Just 3 Steps

Curious about how to get started protecting your ECS Service? Set up is easy:

1. Connect Arpio to your primary and recovery environments

Arpio connects securely to your primary and recovery environments in accordance with AWS best practices for working with 3rd parties. When setting up an application, Arpio will generate CloudFormation templates for you to install in your environment to set up an IAM role-based trust relationship.

2. Define Your Recovery Point Objective

Arpio can support a recovery point of mere seconds up to 24 hours, depending on your business needs. Tell Arpio what your recovery point objective is for this application, and our software will do the rest.

3. Select the Resources for Arpio to Replicate

Once connected, Arpio will automatically discover all of the resources in your environment and their dependencies. Just check the boxes by the ECS resources you care about, as well as the other services that support the workload, and Arpio will discover the rest.

Once you hit save, Arpio will begin its first back up and start to replicate resources to your recovery environment right away. That’s all you need to do to get set up!
