rvs® Data Center
The present chapter describes the technical basis of rvs® Data
Center; its operation is explained in the rvsX 3.05 User Manual.
2.11.1. Introduction
rvs® Data Center offers significantly higher fail safety and
transmission capacity than rvs®.
An rvs® Data Center comprises several rvs® servers aiming at
ensuring high system availability.
Jobs to be processed are evenly distributed among all rvs®
servers within the rvs® Data Center (load balancing).
Transmission capacity can be increased or decreased by adding
or removing rvs® servers at rvs® Data Center run time (scalability).
To ensure trouble-free rvs® Data Center operation another server
can assume the tasks of a failed server.
With regard to communication partners and operation (e.g. file
transfer), rvs® Data Center behaves like a single rvs®.
