Gary,

Thanks for your reply, I don't suppose you are aware of any other users of Grouper who have looked into clustering Grouper?

Cheers

Hi Gabby,

There is no clustering at present. All data is held in a central database so database specific synchronisation / clustering / failover techniques can be used to ensure high availability.

The API (and UI and Web service components) can be installed on multiple machines. The UI and WS can be load balanced (sticky sessions).

We are currently working on 'notifications' and improved provisioning capabilities so it may become possible to propagate changes from one Grouper instance to another, though additional work might be needed to ensure that IDs were propagated appropriately.

Hi,

I was wondering if it was possible to deploy Grouper across multiple
servers to allow for fail over. If Grouper was deployed in that what
would be the best way to replicate groups and group memberships and any
changes to those.

Cheers
