In this series, we take you from bare-metal to a highly-available WordPress site, load-balanced over two nodes and resistant to VPS failures using MariaDB multi-master replication, DRBD, and round-robin DNS.
In this, the final episode of the series, we enable round-robin DNS and test our setup. What happens if we take down node #1? What about node taking down node #2? Does the user’s browser correctly switch nodes? Find out as we put our work to the test!
This video is based on our earlier tutorial.
