So is the goal just to have something to work with in order to get back online? I guess that is more achievable than trying to maintain continuous service, which is what ours are about (failover isn't just for black swan events, but for ordinary outages too).

We tend to differentiate between disaster recovery (where downtime is acceptable) versus high availability (where downtime is not acceptable). High availability is much harder and more expensive.

DR typically means your business is down and all hands bring it back at another location at bare minimum capacity just to keep money flowing.
