Under the Hood

This session explains key benefits and compares core topologies: Standalone HA (STA), Composite Active-Passive (CAP), Composite Active-Active (CAA), Dynamic Active-Active (DAA), and Dynamic Datasource Groups (DDG).​

It also details how automatic failover proceeds step by step — from shunning a failed node through promoting the most up-to-date replica and resuming traffic — and how to run rolling maintenance node-by-node without taking applications offline.
