Deploying a high available application with failover IP

High Availability is key factor in a production environment. If you have a critical application and you cannot afford a downtime or lose of data the application has to be hosted on a high available hosting infrastructure.

You can manage a high available hosting architecture using cloud servers or dedicated servers.  Following diagram gives an insight on how it works.

A failover IP will help you to route the traffic to a backup server in case your main server is not accessible or some issues there. This will be a good option if you plan for a high available application
