    Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) is a high-performance, low-latency, reliable, connectionless protocol for delivering datagrams. It is developed by Oracle Corporation . It was included in the Linux kernel 2.6.30 which was released on 9 June 2009.

  3. Failover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failover

    Failover is switching to a redundant or standby computer server, system, hardware component or network upon the failure or abnormal termination of the previously active application, [1] server, system, hardware component, or network in a computer network. Failover and switchover are essentially the same operation, except that failover is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-availability_cluster

    HA clustering remedies this situation by detecting hardware/software faults, and immediately restarting the application on another system without requiring administrative intervention, a process known as failover. As part of this process, clustering software may configure the node before starting the application on it.

  9. Remote direct memory access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_direct_memory_access

    In computing, remote direct memory access (RDMA) is a direct memory access from the memory of one computer into that of another without involving either one's operating system. This permits high-throughput, low-latency networking, which is especially useful in massively parallel computer clusters.
