Hi. I'm trying to set up clustering with the C++ broker, but I'd like to do this on Amazon EC2 or similar cloud hosts. The problem with this is that I understand the current clustering (corosync/open AIS) requires multicast. This isn't available on EC2 or similar, so I'd like to find out if there are any alternatives or if I've missed some setting in the configuration?
I just need to run a failover pair of brokers, sharing state for many queues/topics, which are located in different data-centers or clouds separated by a reasonably large distance (blast-zone/disaster area for BCP) for my application. I read about Red Hat clustering in the docs, but it didn't seem relevant for this use case. So, is there any alternative resilience mechanism available, that would allow me to run a failover pair of brokers wide-area? Or, is corosync the only one available, still? ? I understand the C++ broker has a plugin that implements the resilience, so is there an API that could be used to add different resilience mechanisms myself? Thanks, Andrew. -- -- andrew d kennedy ?
