How to Enable JAVA application High Availability

HA-JDBC is a JDBC proxy that enables a Java application to transparently access a cluster of identical databases through the JDBC API.

HA-JDBC has the following advantages over normal JDBC:

  • High-Availability

The database cluster is available to service requests so long as at least one database node is active.

  • Fault Tolerance

Because HA-JDBC operates via the JDBC API, it is transaction-aware and can survive a database node failure without failing or corrupting current transactions.

  • Scalability

By balancing read requests across databases, HA-JDBC can meet increasing load by scaling horizontally (i.e. adding database nodes).
