What’s new: HA Model

• Front-End servers manage user state• Front-End server keeps synchronous backup copies of their data on 3 other

FE server• Front-end servers and Back end databases are loosely coupled• Lazy writes to the database for rehydration and disaster recovery • Lync users automatically mapped to “Groups”• Each “Group” is dynamically assigned to 3 FE servers in a pool• When a users logs in, the Primary server will start servicing all users'

requests• Changes to the user’s data will be synchronously replicated to

secondary/tertiary as well• If primary server dies, then group would fail over to secondary (no data

loss)• Writes to back-end occur periodically• When a server dies, all the “Groups ” assigned to that server will failover

to different servers (load balancing)
