At the Red Hat Summit: Connect 2025 in Rome, Par-Tec presented a live demo on cloud-native security and resilience, based on the integration of Red Hat OpenShift – enhanced by the advanced capabilities of OpenShift Virtualization – with Pure Storage Portworx, a Kubernetes-native software-defined storage solution.

The showcased scenario – asynchronous Disaster Recovery between clusters running mixed workloads (containers and virtual machines) – demonstrated how organizations can protect data and orchestrate failover and failback in an automated way, without relying on separate tools or experiencing prolonged service interruptions.

We have now turned that demo into a detailed white paper, covering: 

  • the complete reference architecture, featuring two OpenShift clusters (Production and DR) connected through Portworx asynchronous replication 
  • a technical description of all components and the architectural principles underpinning the solution 
  • the operational DR workflow, from normal operations to failover and failback 
  • the business value: measurable operational continuity, reduced complexity, gradual modernization without lock-in, and compliance with GDPR, NIS2, DORA, and ISO 27001
