  3. High-availability cluster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-availability_cluster

    The most common size for an HA cluster is a two-node cluster, since that is the minimum required to provide redundancy, but many clusters consist of many more, sometimes dozens of nodes. The attached diagram is a good overview of a classic HA cluster, with the caveat that it does not make any mention of quorum/witness functionality (see above).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_of_automated...

    There are different transaction methods used in shared ATMs with regards to the encipherment of PIN, and message authentication among them is so-called "zone encryption". In this method, a trusted authority is appointed to operate on behalf of a group of banks so they could interchange messages for ATM payment approvals. [1]

  5. Redundancy (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(engineering)

    Geographic redundancy corrects the vulnerabilities of redundant devices deployed by geographically separating backup devices. Geographic redundancy reduces the likelihood of events such as power outages, floods, HVAC failures, lightning strikes, tornadoes, building fires, wildfires, and mass shootings disabling most of the system if not the entirety of it.

  6. Heartbeat (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heartbeat_(computing)

    In computer science, a heartbeat is a periodic signal generated by hardware or software to indicate normal operation or to synchronize other parts of a computer system. [1] [2] Heartbeat mechanism is one of the common techniques in mission critical systems for providing high availability and fault tolerance of network services by detecting the network or systems failures of nodes or daemons ...

  7. Message-oriented middleware - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message-oriented_middleware

    The primary disadvantage of many message-oriented middleware systems is that they require an extra component in the architecture, the message transfer agent (message broker). As with any system , adding another component can lead to reductions in performance and reliability, and can also make the system as a whole more difficult and expensive ...

  8. Message queuing service - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_queuing_service

    A message queueing service also creates new value by providing reduced costs, enhanced performance and reliability. In order to provide those benefits, a message queueing service leverages cloud computing resources such as storage, network, memory and processing capacity. By using virtually unlimited cloud computing resources, a message ...
