Cohesity Site Continuity API is one of 4 APIs that [Cohesity](https://apis.io/providers/cohesity/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Disaster Recovery, Site Continuity, Orchestration, and Helios. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an OpenAPI specification.

Site Continuity is Cohesity's disaster-recovery orchestration service, exposed as a 25-operation REST API on the Helios control plane. It models sites, applications and DR plans, runs health checks that validate a plan without executing it, and performs and tracks failover and failback actions. It is the one Cohesity surface that publishes an enumerated error-code vocabulary (kNoError, kValidationError, kInternalError).
