Hi,
We are using the Media Proxy v1.0.0.7 driver, which creates a TCP listener on the DMA to receive push notifications from the Media Proxy device. our DMS is using hostname based failover.
In hostname based failover, the APIgateway application automatically directs incoming port 443 connections to the active DMA host.
Does a mechanism exist that will do the same thing for elements that have their own listener process, as is the case with the Media proxy driver? Do we need to create some wizardry in IIS to receive the push notifications and direct them to the active DMA?
Thanks
Chris
I had an answer in the collaboration ticket I raised from Skyline. For drivers like this that have dedicated listening port, a dedicated proxy needs to be placed in front that can monitor the backends and direct traffic accordingly.
I did a PoC using NGINX that worked, but going with HA-Proxy due to the more robust monitoring available
