1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving event data at an active deployment of a data intake and query system;
processing the event data in a plurality of stages of the data intake and query system to convert the event data into searchable buckets of indexed data, wherein files generated at each stage of the processing are uploaded to a first scalable storage module in the active deployment;
replicating the files generated at each stage of the processing to a second scalable storage module in a standby deployment of the data intake and query system;
responsive to an outage at the active deployment, transitioning control to the standby deployment; and
recovering the event data at the standby deployment using the files replicated to the second scalable storage module.
