Layer7 API Management

  • 1.  CA API Gateway - balance load

    Posted Nov 26, 2018 02:36 AM

    I have 1. server with fully configured CA API Gateway. Let's say server URL is "caapi1.test.hr".

    I have 2. server with MySQL database (first server is connected to this one because of database) and on this server I have configured Docker container with CA API Gateway. Let's say server URL is "caapi2.test.hr".

     

    Now I want to make when one server goes off other one must take their job so my CA API Gateway will never go in situation that it's not working. I want to map all on first server URL --> "caapi1.test.hr".

     

    Is there any easy way to achieve this or some step-by-step tutorial for this specific use case ?

     

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi 

     

    You can setup two or more GW as  cluster which will failover in case of a emergency 

    please see :

    Configure a Gateway Cluster - CA API Gateway - 9.4 - CA Technologies Documentation 

    or run multiple docker container Gateways

    Run the Container Gateway on Docker Engine - CA API Gateway - 9.4 - CA Technologies Documentation
