Reliability Features

This chapter addresses:
• RTR server types
• Failover and recovery
• Recovery scenarios

RTR Server Types

Reliability in RTR is enhanced by the use of:

• Concurrent servers
• Standby servers
• Shadow servers
• Callout servers
• Router failover
Note that, conceptually, servers can be contrasted as follows:
• Concurrent servers handle similar transactions which access

the same data partition and run on the same node.
When transaction throughput is constrained by your server

application, consider adding a second instance of your server

application with a concurrent server.

• Shadow servers handle the same transactions and run on

different nodes.
