# Elastic Disaster Recovery Recovery Instance

An Elastic Disaster Recovery Recovery Instance in AWS is a temporary compute resource created during failover or recovery testing. It is launched from replicated source servers to provide a functional copy of workloads in the AWS environment. This allows businesses to quickly resume operations after disruptions, validate recovery plans, and minimize downtime.
