There are many scenarios when technology stops operating as projected. For example, network connections suddenly drop, servers die, repositories and databases fail, and applications crash. Businesses and organizations are expected to know how to deal with such unavoidable situations. Unfortunately, not all companies have a clear understanding of what steps are necessary to ensure that their work never gets interrupted. High Availability (HA) solution is designed to deal with these problems and should be a part of all software product development projects
High Availability functions to monitor technological systems to guarantee their ongoing operation. Involving various mechanisms, hardware, and software minimizes downtime caused by server failure or operational system disruption and ensures data availability. Even in the case of system failures, data must always be protected and accessible by users.
How does High Availability work?
High Availability monitors the ongoing processes to detect the failure of the operating system or servers. Once failures or disruption are detected, these technologies are automatically reloaded on other servers which are a part of the High Availability cluster. The shared system of data storage on these servers allows for an automatic reload and availability of data eliminating the risk of system downtime.
How do we measure High Availability?
High Availability is measured in percentage, signaling how much uptime or downtime could be expected from a server. 100% of uptime, for example, means that the server is never interrupted and never fails.
