Resolved Multiserver Roadmap question - HA Feature

[enerspace]

Hi everyone,

can we Discuss this point?:

• Administrative balancing (moving a subscription's files between service nodes).

I can move customers directly from one service node to another?

It would be great if it were possible to use this function to create a high-availability service node.

This could look like this: I create a customer and assign it to the primary service node. In addition, I assign a secondary failover service node to the customer. Should the primary service node fail, the visitor would be redirected to the secondary service node.

Look to Proxmox. This virtualisation have a good HA feature.

I could, for example, perform maintenance work or it could fail on the service node also the hardware without the data is lost.

Is something planned?

Hi @enerspace,

Yes. Administrative balancing will allow customers to move subscriptions between service nodes w/o downtime.
It is not failover scenario, and it is not supposed to run the same website on both service nodes with synchronization between them. But it can be the first step to HA which you described.

It is a good idea to have a Failover cluster with Multi Server service nodes, we will think about it for the future updates.

Nice @Anthony!

Can you tell me in this post if the feature should come?

Edit: I modified the title so that it can be better found.

@enerspace,

Can you tell me in this post if the feature should come?

It is better to check the product roadmap from time to time and watch out for our announcements.

The feature will be included in the roadmap if we decide to implement it.
