High-availability Cloud Deployments: Designing High-availability Solutions

An obvious goal of any cloud engineer is to ensure as little loss of service and downtime as possible. In this course youll explore the concept of high availability and outline the most common IT considerations necessary components architectures and recommended strategies for implementing high availability. Youll examine the different types of outages addressed using high-availability solutions and the implementation approaches for primary and secondary distribution servers in high-availability environments. Youll then classify the benefits and pitfalls of implementing high-availability deployments and compare traditional and virtualized high-availability and failover solutions. Furthermore youll investigate the system availability metrics key cloud architecture patterns and critical cloud service management guidelines for designing and architecting high-availability solutions. Lastly youll differentiate between traditional and cloud high-availability solutions and define the process of migrating from traditional to cloud high-availability deployments.
