What is OneData Clustering?
Clustering is an advanced feature that substantially extends the availability, and scalability of OneData. Clustering accomplishes this by providing the infrastructure and tools to deploy multiple OneData instances as if they were a single virtual server.
With clustering, you get the following benefits:
AvailabilityClustering enables you to avoid a single point of failure. If a cluster node cannot handle a request, or becomes unavailable, the request is automatically redirected to another node in the cluster.
Scalability You can increase your capacity even further by adding new nodes to the cluster.
Clustering becomes important in OneData as the number of concurrent users, jobs, and service calls increases. OneData, being primarily a web application, has a multi-layered architecture that allows clustering at different levels that includes the application server and the database.
