High Availability Modes

  • Normal Mode - a FIX server cluster comprises a minimum of two machines, each running an instance of the Orc CameronFIX Universal Server. The cluster represents a single High Availability FIX service to the external FIX community. At any one time, the primary FIX server in the cluster handles all FIX traffic. The primary engine constantly synchronizes with, and is monitored by, all other FIX engines in the cluster. The secondary engine is always in the same state as the primary engine and always ready to assume its role in the event of a failure
     
  • Failover Mode - in the event of a hardware or software failure on the primary server, the secondary server takes over as the primary, and re-establishes FIX sessions
     
  • Recovery Mode - once the fault on the down server has been detected and repaired, this server is re-introduced and synchronized to the cluster and sent to standby mode. The cluster can remain in this operational mode, or the primary server can be manually forced to return to normal mode again

High Availability FIX Platform - Orc CameronFIX

Load Balancing on Multiple Servers

Orc CameronFIX High Availability can be configured in an active / active mode where two or more servers process FIX traffic concurrently and still provide automatic failover. Multiple clusters can be configured across the same set of servers, each server with multiple instances of the Orc CameronFIX Engine.

High Availability across a WAN

High Availability across a Wide Area Network is used to backup servers at remote sites. In a local High Availability environment, when both servers are located at the same site, messages sent to the primary are acknowledged by the backup before any processing can continue. Unlike a LAN, a WAN has high network latency. Servers distributing messages to remote servers can be configured to reduce latency.

Orc provides timely, responsive sales and technical support locally from our worldwide service centers located in every major financial center.
