Hi,
We are in a process of setting up a centralized drools6 Workbench in our
organization. This way we can keep our assets and artefacts in a central
location. We will make this central Workbench clustered for high
availability. I have a few queries in regard to clustering the Workbench.
Problem Statement
As workbench is using GIT, this means we need to have an enterprise level GIT
repository where all the assets get stored for Workbench. As GIT is
file-system based , it in turn, calls for a clustered GIT server within the
organization. Our organization will prefer to have a private GIT repository
hosted within office network which is highly available and wants to avoid any
cost for GIT repository setup.
Workbench doesn't force you to have any extra cost with GIT, as it comes with
it and you don't need an external (outside your network) provider as Workbench
has it's own GIT infra.
1. I want to know how to make Workbench highly available , with GIT
also Highly available. Is chapter# 18 VFS CLUSTERING is the answer to high
available GIT and WORKBENCH both ? or is there any other way to make GIT
repository highly available.
The Workbench cluster is a Highly Available type of cluster, all you need is
follow the instructions and you'll have what you need. To be even more clear:
as GIT is embedded in Workbench solution, once you setup a Workbench cluster
you get for free a GIT HA setup.
But if you're looking for a proxy based solution (Workbench accessing your own
external GIT cluster using whatever solution you have) - this we don't support,
Workbench will always have it's own GIT infra embedded.
2. Will ZooKeeper and Helix be enough to make the clustered environment
for both Workbench with its GIT repo ?
Yes... ZK and Helix does the job! Be aware that you'd need to have a proper ZK
setup (another cluster) in order to obtain a real HA cluster. Your final
solution will be probably end up with 3 ZKs in a cluster + the Workbench
cluster (both clusters can be setup in the same nodes if you want).
