From Disaster Recovery to Intelligent Resilience in the AI Era

In today’s global wave of digital transformation, data has become a core asset and a critical factor of production for enterprises. In 2025, we witnessed profound changes in the field of data security: frequent ransomware attacks, rapidly increasing system complexity, and dramatically shrinking recovery time windows.

These challenges are driving a fundamental shift—from compliance-driven, passive disaster recovery to a new paradigm defined by intelligence, proactivity, and adaptability: intelligent resilience. As a pioneer in data replication and protection, Info2soft’s “data resilience foundation” concept, introduced in 2025, serves as a practical blueprint for this transformation.

New Challenges, New Requirements

From Compliance-Driven to Resilience-Oriented

Over the past year, uncertainties in the global digital economy have continued to intensify. The revised Cybersecurity Law of the People’s Republic of China, together with the Data Security Law and the Personal Information Protection Law, has established a more stringent legal and regulatory framework.

However, merely meeting compliance requirements is no longer sufficient. In the AI era, the real challenge lies in building intrinsic resilience—the ability not only to prevent data loss, but to ensure continuous operation of critical business systems in the face of failures and attacks.

Traditional backup solutions resemble “band-aids for the digital world,” often reacting only after incidents occur. In contrast, resilience requires systems to possess “immunity” and “self-healing” capabilities. This represents a fundamental evolution in data protection philosophy—from “being prepared” in disaster recovery to “preventing risks before they occur” in intelligent resilience.

From “Disaster Recovery” to “Intelligent Resilience”

Building an AI-Driven Resilient Architecture

In response to this trend, Info2soft has been deeply integrating AI with data replication technologies since 2025, launching more intelligent and automated disaster recovery agents to enable the transition from traditional disaster recovery to intelligent resilience.

Dimension Traditional Disaster Recovery Intelligent Resilience
Model Passive response, post-incident recovery Proactive alerts, pre-incident intervention
Decision-Making Experience-based, fixed processes AI-driven, dynamically optimized strategies
Objective Data protection, recoverability Business continuity, seamless experience
Capability Standardized DR Adaptive, resilient

This transformation is embodied in an AI-driven resilience architecture:

  • Perception Layer:
    Through comprehensive monitoring and early warning capabilities, streaming data and logs are integrated. Info2soft is developing intelligent fault prediction models based on machine learning and industry-specific large models, enabling a shift from passive alerting to proactive risk insight.

  • Decision & Execution Layer:
    Planning and scheduling, automated deployment, and coordinated analysis together form a dynamic strategy engine. By exploring reinforcement learning techniques, systems can automatically optimize and generate adaptive recovery strategies based on real-time environments and historical drill data—enabling intelligent recovery paths and resource orchestration.

  • Continuous Evolution Layer:
    Through ongoing simulation of failure scenarios and closed-loop validation, the system accumulates experience and continuously enhances its self-healing capabilities, moving toward higher levels of autonomy.

Leveraging its comprehensive product portfolio—including i2Backup, i2CDP, i2Availability, i2Stream, and i2ShareAI—Info2soft builds highly automated and intelligent disaster recovery systems. These systems can automatically execute rapid recovery in response to technical failures, cyberattacks, or natural disasters, while dynamically optimizing data flows and business operations during recovery.

Unlike traditional manual interventions, Info2soft’s solutions incorporate deep learning and automated adjustments to ensure that critical data and services are restored in the shortest possible time, minimizing the impact of downtime on enterprise competitiveness.

Since 2025, Info2soft has successfully implemented digital resilience solutions across multiple key industries, including government, finance, manufacturing, and healthcare.

In the financial sector, for example, Info2soft delivered an independently controllable data backup solution for the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), replacing legacy foreign systems and ensuring the security and stability of PB-scale core data. Through a unified management platform, the client achieved cross-regional data replication and redundant backup, significantly improving backup efficiency and recovery capabilities.

These practices not only demonstrate Info2soft’s industry expertise but also validate digital resilience as a cornerstone of sustainable enterprise growth in an increasingly complex global economy.

Aligning with the 15th Five-Year Plan

Digital Resilience as Competitiveness and Sovereignty

The year 2026 marks the beginning of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan. During this period, the value of data as a production factor will be further unleashed.

Info2soft’s market insights indicate that digital resilience will become a key pillar for national digital economic development and global competitiveness. Beyond a technical safeguard, digital resilience represents an essential component of national data sovereignty and technological self-reliance.

As foundational infrastructure for the digital economy, digital resilience will help nations maintain leadership in global competition—particularly in data sovereignty, cybersecurity, and digital governance.

For enterprises, digital resilience is no longer merely an “emergency tool.” It is evolving into a core strategic capability. In the context of the 15th Five-Year Plan, Chinese enterprises are expected to shift from passive response to proactive innovation, leveraging resilience to gain stronger positioning in global markets.

Building such capabilities requires a comprehensive enhancement of resilience across infrastructure, data management, and technology application—making it an integral part of enterprise competitiveness. Info2soft is fully equipped to support this transformation.

The deep integration of AI and data resilience will fundamentally reshape the technological paradigm of data protection. Large model training and inference demand massive volumes of high-quality, traceable, and recoverable data.

Future resilience architectures will go far beyond simple backup and recovery. They will center on automatic repair, adaptability, and intelligent decision-making, leveraging predictive insights and optimization to enable continuous innovation in enterprise operations.

Forging the Resilience Foundation, Empowering the Digital Future

Digital resilience enables enterprises to achieve secure, precise, and efficient data mobility. It is not only a “lifeline” for navigating uncertainty, but also a core engine driving new-quality productivity and high-quality development.

At the outset of the 15th Five-Year Plan, harnessing data to empower intelligence and using resilience to drive progress has become a defining mission of the era.

Through its four major product lines—disaster recovery, backup, big data, and cloud data management—Info2soft is building a solid data resilience foundation for industries across the board. What it safeguards is not only business continuity and security, but also the activation of data value, the enablement of intelligent transformation, and the protection of national digital sovereignty and industrial competitiveness.

Info2soft is committed to working alongside industry partners and customers to transform technological collaboration into momentum for digital intelligence development. With resilience as the foundation and intelligence as the driving force, Chinese enterprises will not only move forward steadily but also rise with momentum in the global digital wave—shaping a more secure, autonomous, and innovative digital future.
