Active/Active High Availabiltiy

[Ravi Kumar]

I have been doing some research for a client that is considering implementing Mule into a production environment.  We would of course need to configure some kind of clustering that supports high availability.  I have found the html page that discusses high availability.  The page is found here: [http://www.mulesoft.com/high-availability-mule-esb|I have been doing some research for a client that is considering implementing Mule into a production environment.  We would of course need to configure some kind of clustering that supports high availability.  I have found the html page that discusses high availability.  The page is found here: http://www.mulesoft.com/high-availability-mule-esb.|I have been doing some research for a client that is considering implementing Mule into a production environment.  We would of course need to configure some kind of clustering that supports high availability.  I have found the html page that discusses high availability.  The page is found here: http://www.mulesoft.com/high-availability-mule-esb.].
It discusses that the Enterprise version supports Active/Passive High Availability.  The client would like to configure an Active/Active solution.  

Does anyone in the Mule community know if Mule would support and Active/Active configuration or are we stuck at an Active/Passive configuration?

Thanks,
Erik

It's pretty much dependent on the transports you use and whether you need to share state across your instances.

Suppose you use HTTP and JMS and have idempotent receivers persisting their state in a central DB, you're good to go with a simple network load balancer in front of your Mule instances.

So: it depends.
