What is auto failover and how does it help with high availability??
Auto failover is a technique in database clusters that allows standby nodes to take over if the primary node goes down, increasing the system's availability. This enables the application to operate seamlessly, giving an uninterrupted user experience despite software/hardware trouble.?
The cluster acts as a single unit for the application, replicating data across all nodes so that they are in sync. This increases system redundancy and can achieve up to 99.99% (four nines) of availability.?
You can read about how our team helped a FinTech set up a highly available cluster and also comply with regulations here.
Until next time,?
