Post subject: Failover |

| Since a single point of failure is not a good thing, does FirstSpot implement any type of redundancy so that if two boxes were purchased they could either be setup as active/passive failover or even load-balanced? |

| Is there no answer for this question, or is the question just being ignored? |

FirstSpot does not currently have failover built-in. You probably need to do it in the OS level.
We will consider implementing failover in the future release.

| This is certainly a weakness. When you say do it at the OS level do you mean use something like RAID? |

RAID is certainly one option. One suggestion is that you can put the external SQL (we support MySQL or MS SQL) in RAID and have a "standby" FirstSpot ready. In case there is hardware or other problem in the original FirstSpot, you can manually switch to the standby FirstSpot.
