Abstract:
Multi-site distributed storage systems and computer-implemented methods are described for providing an automatic unplanned failover (AUFO) feature to guarantee non-disruptive operations (e.g., operations of business enterprise applications, operations of software application) even in the presence of failures including, but not limited to, network disconnection between multiple data centers and failures of a data center or cluster.
