High-availability clusters (also known as HA clusters, fail-over clusters) are groups of computers that support server applications that can be reliably utilized with a minimum amount of down-time. They operate by using high availability software to harness redundant computers in groups or clusters that provide continued service when system ...
The Linux-HA (High-Availability Linux) project provides a high-availability solution for Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Mac OS X which promotes reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS). [1] The project's main software product is Heartbeat, a GPL-licensed portable cluster management program for high-availability clustering. Its ...
SIOS LifeKeeper (formerly known as SteelEye LifeKeeper) is a high-availability cluster software, for Linux computer systems. It provides application cluster capabilities for nonstop operation and disaster recovery to systems running databases, file sharing on a network, electronic commerce websites, ERP systems or other applications requiring nonstop operation
Veritas Cluster Server (rebranded as Veritas Infoscale Availability [1] [2] and also known as VCS and also sold bundled in the SFHA product) is high-availability cluster software for Unix, Linux and Microsoft Windows computer systems, created by Veritas Technologies.
The Red Hat Cluster Suite (RHCS) includes software to create a high availability and load balancing cluster. Both can be used on the same system although this use case is unlikely. Both products, the High Availability Add-On and Load Balancer Add-On, are based on open-source community projects. Red Hat Cluster developers contribute code ...
OpenSSI is designed to be used for both high performance and high availability clusters. It is possible to create an OpenSSI cluster with no single point of failure, for example the file system can be mirrored between two nodes, so if one node crashes the process accessing the file will fail over to the other node. Alternatively the cluster can ...
DRBD is traditionally used in high availability (HA) computer clusters, but beginning with DRBD version 9, it can also be used to create larger software defined storage pools with a focus on cloud integration. [4] The DRBD software is free software released under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2.
Pacemaker is an open-source high availability resource manager software used on computer clusters since 2004. Until about 2007, it was part of the Linux-HA project, then was split out to be its own project. [3] It implements several APIs for controlling resources, but its preferred API for this purpose is the Open Cluster Framework resource ...
