Abstract: Aspects of embodiments of the present disclosure include a highly available database cluster employing replication between two or more data files. The cluster also can maintain a connection with potentially geographically remote client application programs, including non-fault tolerant application programs, even in the event of one of the database management systems (DBMS) of the cluster becoming unavailable.

Abstract: Aspects of embodiments of the present disclosure include a highly available database cluster that can maintain a connection with potentially geographically remote client application programs, including non-fault tolerant application programs, even in the event of one of the database management systems (DBMS) of the cluster becoming unavailable. For example, the database cluster can advantageously move a client connection between a failing, unbalanced, or overloaded DBMS, to another DBMS within the cluster. The database cluster can include connection managers that monitor a connection between a client application program and a primary DBMS. When one connection manager determines that the primary DBMS is unavailable, the connection manager of a secondary DBMS can assume the connection to the client application as if it were the primary DBMS. The connection manager can finish all open transactions, thereby avoiding the need to roll back the same.

Abstract: Aspects of embodiments of the present disclosure include a host computer system including a database management system. The host computer system may alter communication between a client application and the database management system, including requests from the client application and responses from the database management system.
