ZEN Master features a disaster recovery feature that enables reverting an entire path after the Source (i.e., Channel/Broadcaster to the Target) to go through an alternative path, which is usually hosted on an alternative cloud/region. The redirection to the alternative path is manual. So, in case of a fault, if there is no time to troubleshoot a problem, this mechanism allows the user to select the feed that has an issue, click a button and revert the stream to go through a pre-configured alternative path. 

For example, if you have a Channel and a Broadcaster on GCP and a secondary Channel and Broadcaster on Azure. If something goes wrong with the GCP path, you can click the Go to Alternative button and failover everything to Azure. 

Unlike the regular Failover mechanism, where you might have configured redundancy within the single path of the workflow, this is a configuration failover.
