Why Should Your DR Be in Ankara If You're in Istanbul?

Istanbul is located on the North Anatolian Fault Line in Turkey's highest seismic risk zone. Turkish banking (BDDK), capital markets (SPK), and international regulations require critical systems to be backed up in different geographic regions. Ankara, in a lower seismic risk zone and 450+ km from Istanbul, is an ideal DR location.

450+ km geographic separation - Different fault lines, different seismic zones

High-capacity fiber links between Istanbul-Ankara, <10ms latency

Meets BDDK, SPK, PCI-DSS, and KVKK compliance requirements

Low enough latency for synchronous replication
