    Full Answer

    Use Amazon Aurora Global Database., Configure application-level routing to failover to the secondary region endpoint.
    Amazon Aurora Global Database is designed for globally distributed applications, allowing a single Aurora database to span multiple AWS Regions. It replicates data with no impact on database performance, provides fast local reads, and enables disaster recovery from region-wide outages with an RPO of typically under 1 second and an RTO of under 1 minute.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing Multi-AZ (same region) with Global Database (cross-region).
