Sollae IoT Data Hub:
Enhanced Stability with Server Redundancy
System Configuration and Operation
The IoT Data Integration System features a redundant configuration for stable data processing. This system consists of IDIS dedicated gateways, two IoT data integration servers (primary and secondary), and IDIS Studio software.
1. Server Operation
- Active/Standby Mode: The system always maintains one server in active state and the other in standby. Typically, the primary server starts in active state.
- Automatic Switching: If the active server experiences communication issues with IoT gateways, it automatically switches to standby mode, and the standby server becomes active. This allows for uninterrupted operation even during system failures.
- Data Replication: The active server replicates data to the secondary server in real-time, ensuring the secondary server is always up-to-date. This prepares the secondary server to replace the active server at any time.
2. IoT Gateway Operation
- Connection Attempt: The IoT gateway first attempts to connect to the primary server. If the connection fails, it retries at set intervals.
- Server Switching: If multiple retry attempts fail, the gateway assumes the primary server is down and attempts to connect to the secondary server.
3. IDIS Studio
IDIS Studio software is always connected to an active server to monitor and control data in real-time.
Advantages of the Redundant System
- High Availability: Even if one server fails, the other automatically takes over, increasing the overall system availability.
- Reliable Data Processing: The data replication feature minimizes the risk of data loss and ensures stable data processing.
- Rapid Failure Recovery: The automatic switching feature quickly recovers from system failures, minimizing service downtime.
The redundant configuration of the IoT Data Integration System significantly enhances system stability and reliability. This allows businesses to securely manage IoT data and perform efficient data analysis.
