High availability support in the wire listener

The wire listener provides high availability support.

To provide high availability to client applications, use the appropriate method:
  • For REST clients, you can use a reverse proxy for multiple wire listeners.
  • For MongoDB clients, use a high-availability cluster configuration for your HCL OneDB™ database servers. For each database server in the cluster, run a wire listener that is directly connected to that database server. Each wire listener must be on the same computer as the database server that it is connected to and all wire listeners must run on the port 27017.

To provide high availability between the wire listener and the HCL OneDB database server, use one of the following methods:
