Active-Active Vs Active-Passive Configuration in Teiid Cluster

flora_dim May 15, 2017 12:16 AM

I have set up a two node Teiid cluster in domain configuration. (Teiid 9.2.2 and WildFly 10.0)

1. Does starting Teiid in domain mode automatically configure the cluster in active-active mode?

2. Are there additional configurations I need to do to guarantee high availability in active-active mode, in addition to integrating a load-balancer to this setup?

3. How to start the cluster in active-passive configuration? Is this a function of the load-balancer and does not involve changing Teiid configurations?

4. Which of these two configurations ( active-active vs active-passive ) is recommended for a Teiid ecosystem ?

I would appreciate if you could provide me with some brief explanation.

Thank you.

1) Yes
2) A load balancer is what you need either hardware or software (like HAProxy) based.
3) Here you may want to choose the failover but not load balancing using Using Multiple Hosts · Teiid Documentation active/passive setting.
