ENCRYPTED CROSS-ZONE REPLICATION FOR CROSS-ZONE REPLICATED BLOCK STORAGE DEVICES

摘要

The present disclosure generally relates to creating virtualized block storage devices whose data is replicated across isolated computing systems to lower risk of data loss even in wide-scale events, such as natural disasters. The virtualized device can include at least two volumes, each of which is implemented in a distinct computing system. Each volume can be encrypted with a distinct key, and an encryption service can operate to transform data “in-flight” on the replication path between the volumes, reencrypting data according to the key appropriate for each volume.
