HIGH-AVAILABILITY CONTINUOUS DELIVERY OF DATACENTER BUILDS ON CLOUD COMPUTING PLATFORMS
Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems deploy software artifacts in data centers created in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system uses a control datacenter with a set of service groups used for configuring other datacenters, for example, for performing continuous delivery of software artifacts for other datacenters. The system configures on the cloud platform: (1) a primary control datacenter, (2) a secondary control datacenter, and (3) a tertiary control datacenter. Each control datacenter is configured to act as one or more of: (a) an active control datacenter for configuring cloud infrastructure on tenant datacenters, wherein a tenant datacenter is associated with a tenant of a multi-tenant system, (b) a standby control datacenter for taking over as the active control datacenter, or (c) a recovery control datacenter for fixing components of another control datacenter.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MIGRATION OF VIRTUAL COMPUTING RESOURCES USING SMART NETWORK INTERFACE CONTROLLER ACCELERATION
An information handling system may include a first host system, comprising a first processor and a first network interface, and a second host system, comprising a second processor and a second network interface. The first network interface may be configured to accelerate migration of a designated virtual resource from the first host system to the second host system.
Redundant controllers or input-output gateways without dedicated hardware
A method of fault-tolerant process control includes providing a network process control system in an industrial processing facility (IPF) including a plant-wide network coupling a server to computing platforms each including computing hardware and memory hosting a software application for simultaneously supporting a process controller and another process controller or an I/O gateway. The computing platforms are coupled together by a private path redundancy network for providing a hardware resource pool. At least some of the computing platforms are directly coupled by an I/O mesh network to a plurality of I/O devices to field devices that are coupled to processing equipment. Upon detecting at least one failing device in the hardware resource pool, over the private path redundancy network a backup is placed into service for the failing device from the another process controller or I/O gateway that is at another of the computing platforms in the hardware resource pool.
Container-Based Application Data Protection Method and System
A computer-implemented method of continuous restore for containerized applications includes initiating a continuous restore process for a containerized application having an application template and application data, where the containerized application executes on a first cluster. A backup plan for the containerized application is generated. A persistent volume containing the application data in the first cluster is identified and some of the application data is moved from the persistent volume to a backup target based on the backup plan schedule. The backup plan is received at a data synch process executing on a second cluster. A persistent volume is created on the second cluster. Some of the application data is moved from the backup target to the created persistent volume on the second cluster based on the backup plan schedule. The containerized application is recovered at the second cluster based on some of the application data moved to the persistent volume on the second cluster by the data synch process such that the recovered containerized application is operational at the most recent backup point-of-time of the backup plan schedule.
EVENT-DRIVEN SYSTEM FAILOVER AND FAILBACK
A system determines that a primary event processor, included in a primary data center, is associated with a failure. The primary event processor is included in the primary data center and configured to process first events stored in a main event store of the primary data center. The system identifies a secondary event processor, in a secondary data center, that is to process one or more first events based on the failure. The primary event processor and the secondary event processor are configured to process a same type of event. The system causes, based on a configuration associated with the primary or secondary event processor, the one or more first events to be retrieved from one of the main event store or a replica event store. The replica event store is included in the secondary data center and mirrors the main event store of the primary data center.
WRITING SEGMENTS AND ERASE BLOCKS BASED ON ORDERING
A method is provided. The method includes receiving a set of data blocks to be stored in a storage system. The storage system includes a plurality of non-volatile memory modules. The method also includes generating a set of segments based on the set of data blocks. A respective segment comprising portions of one or more erase blocks. The method further includes writing the set of segments to the non-volatile memory modules based on orderings of the portions of the one or more erase blocks.
ADAPTIVE QUERY ROUTING IN A REPLICATED DATABASE ENVIRONMENT
Technologies are described providing adaptive query routing in a replicated database environment. The technologies can be used with a variety of replication protocols. Prepared statements, such as for queries, from a database client can be routed to a source node, or a source node and available replica nodes, when a replica node becomes unavailable. When a replica node becomes available again, a prepared statement can be updated to indicate that the updated prepared statement can be executed at nodes including the replica node that is available again. Prepared statement routing can also be used when a portion of replicated data becomes unavailable at a replica node, but a portion of replicated data remains available.
SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS FOR HIGH AVAILABILITY APPLICATION MIGRATION IN A VIRTUALIZED ENVIRONMENT
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for high availability (HA) application migration in a virtualized environment. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to at least one of execute or instantiate the instructions to identify an HA slot in a virtual server rack, the HA slot to facilitate a failover of an application executing on a first virtual machine (VM) in the virtual server rack, the first VM identified as a protected VM, deploy a second VM in the HA slot, transfer data from the first VM to the second VM, and, in response to not identifying a failure of at least one of the first or second VMs during the transfer, trigger a shutdown of the first VM, and synchronize migration data associated with the virtual server rack to identify the second VM as the protected VM.
System recovery using a failover processor
Techniques for system recovery using a failover processor are disclosed. A first processor, with a first instruction set, is configured to execute operations of a first type; and a second processor, with a second instruction set different from the first instruction set, is configured to execute operations of a second type. A determination is made that the second processor has failed to execute at least one operation of the second type within a particular period of time. Responsive to determining that the second processor has failed to execute at least one operation of the second type within the particular period of time, the first processor is configured to execute both the operations of the first type and the operations of the second type.
Cluster recovery manager to remediate failovers
Example implementations relate to management of clusters. A cluster recovery manager may comprise a processing resource; and a memory resource storing machine-readable instructions to cause the processing resource to: adjust, based on a monitored degree of performance of a controller of a controller cluster, a state of the controller to one of a first state and a second state; and reassign a corresponding portion of a plurality of APs managed by the controller periodically to a different controller until the state of the controller is determined to be adjustable to the first state. The reassignment can be triggered responsive to a state adjustment of the controller from the first state to the second state.
