IMPROVEMENT IN SERVER PERFORMANCE AND AVAILABILITY USING MULTI-CLUSTER LDAP SERVERS AND IMPROVED REPLICATION SYSTEM

Abstract

A big issue in the storage of data and the capability to re-establish them, while maintaining the elements of performance and robustness if a particular event does not favour it. Storing mechanisms prove to be very useful during utilization of the stored data to meet the expected standards. Solution for the fault tolerance can be provided by storing multiple copies or replicas of the data where the lost data can be recovered from another replica. This mechanism can impact on the performance of the system. A good storage mechanism that is flexible to the desired expectation of raising the fault tolerance level without compromising on the performance is imperative. This paper outlines one such system which mainly addresses the above said expectation with the use of certificates for authentications in the architecture.
