Enabling High Availability and Data Consistency Features
The fault tolerance and the high-availability features of SynxDB can be configured.
Important When data loss is not acceptable for a SynxDB cluster, SynxDB master and segment mirroring is recommended. If mirroring is not enabled then SynxDB stores only one copy of the data, so the underlying storage media provides the only guarantee for data availability and correctness in the event of a hardware failure.
The SynxDB on vSphere virtualized environment ensures the enforcement of anti-affinity rules required for SynxDB mirroring solutions and fully supports mirrorless deployments. Other virtualized or containerized deployment environments are generally not supported for production use unless both SynxDB master and segment mirroring are enabled.
For information about the utilities that are used to enable high availability, see the SynxDB Utility Guide.
