# Introduction

> Disaster recovery that runs in your infrastructure

# Welcome to FailZero

Disaster recovery platform that runs in your infrastructure. No credential sharing. Just automatic failover when things break.

## How It Works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Deploy the agent">
    Runs in your GCP/AWS environment with your IAM roles
  </Step>

  <Step title="Write a DR plan">
    YAML file, version controlled, code reviewed
  </Step>

  <Step title="Agent monitors">
    Health checks every 30 seconds
  </Step>

  <Step title="Failure detected">
    Agent executes failover automatically
  </Step>

  <Step title="Recovery complete">
    3-5 minutes, fully automated
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Zero Credential Sharing

Your FailZero agent runs in your VPC with your IAM roles. We coordinate, you execute. Your cloud credentials never leave your infrastructure.

    Agent uses local IAM roles. We never see your cloud keys.

    No firewall exceptions needed. Agent runs locally.

## What Gets Automated

* Database replica promotion (Cloud SQL, RDS)
* DNS updates (Cloud DNS, Route53)
* Compute scaling (MIG, Auto Scaling, ECS)
* Secret updates (connection strings, API keys)

All coordinated. All logged. All reversible.
