[firebird-support] High Availability Firebird

[Matthew [e-mail] [firebird-support]]

Hi Everyone,


First, I apologise if this isn't the correct group - please forgive me.


I'm trying to find some contemporary (ie from in the last 24 months /
Firebird 3.0+) info/documentation on using Firebird in a High
Availability configuration. What I'm thinking is using Firebird on a
pair of Centos7 Servers with Pacemaker and/or HAProxy.


Can anyone please point me in the right direction - thanks


Matt

Hi Alex,

Thanks for that link - I was aware of HQBird, and while it is
interesting I was trying to keep the solution OpenSource (which was why
I mentioned Pacemaker and HAProxy) - our solution cannot justify (at the
moment) the $1K+ price tag of HQBird.

As a further "prompt" to everyone - does anyone have any experience
using Firebird with a shared datastore such as Ceph?

You see, the thing is we can use MySQL in a HA configuration right now
(using all OpenSource software) and I can't believe that we can't do it
with Firebird - which is a way better product than MySQL :)

I've had a look, but I couldn't find anything Firebird specific, and the
ones I did look at didn't seem to have any info on using them with Firebird.

Do you know of a particular example, Dimitry?

And have you (or anyone else, for that matter) actually done it?

Thanks for the advice

Matt

Sweet!

Thanks Dimitry, I'll do some more research. Hopefully this will provide
the necessary component(s) for an active-active (or even active-passive)
HA solution. :)
