Researchers from the University of Cincinnati and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology introduce iHAC, a hybrid cluster architecture integrating active-active and active-passive principles. Simulation results show iHAC reduces HTTP page response time by over 40% compared to traditional active-active setups, improving system responsiveness and resource utilization.

Key insights

  • A hybrid HA architecture can effectively combine the strengths of active-active and active-passive models, leveraging resource efficiency and reliable failover.
  • Intelligent load balancing and dynamic resource allocation are crucial for optimizing performance in hybrid high-availability systems.
  • Simulation-based design science methodology offers a practical approach to evaluate complex distributed systems before real-world deployment, allowing for performance analysis in controlled environments.
