Breaking the Availability Barrier, Volume II, Achieving Century Uptimes With Active-Active Systems and Breaking the Availbity Barrier, Volume III, Active/Active Systems in Practice.
Written by Dr. Bill Highleyman, Paul J. Holenstein, and Dr. Bruce Holenstein. Volume II extends the theoretical topics covered in Volume I and covers significant issues and technologies related to active/active architectures, including availability calculations, redundant reliable networks, distributed databases, TCO, and node failures. Volume III is really a companion to Volume II and contains practical examples and case studies for actually building active/active systems based upon the principles covered in Volumes I and II.
