Supported High-Availability Jive Configurations

This section describes the supported HA configurations: single data center and multiple data centers.

Jive supports two types of HA configurations:
Local high-availability in a single data center
This ensures availability in a single data center deployment through the use of redundant and load-balanced nodes for the web application, cache, document conversion, and databases.

Geographically-distributed high-availability across multiple data centers
This ensures availability across multiple data centers in the event of a disaster affecting the active datacenter through the use of redundant (but not hot) nodes for the web application, cache, document conversion, and databases.
