3 Why HA is important for PayPal? Our Learning Our Solution What is not solved? Q&A AGENDA

4 WHY HA IS IMPORTANT? “no perceived downtime” for cloud users Enterprise Class Auto Scaling & Flex up/down can never break API Integrations always succeed Everyone expected to use the cloud

5 No SPOF “Under the Cloud” Scale Across the Data Center(s) Scale Across Racks & Containers Respect natural availability zones within the data centers No ‘cloud’ can impact any other ‘cloud’ AVAILABILITY REQUIREMENTS

14 How HA is implemented for Cinder Components: API (stateless) – Load Balancer (A/A or A/P); Scheduler (stateless) – Pacemaker, Queue itself (A/A or A/P); Volume – Pacemaker, Queue itself (A/A or A/P).
