IQ Bot 11.x: High Availability deployment model
The High Availability (HA) deployment model provides failure tolerance for the IQ Bot servers, services, and databases.
The following shows IQ Bot and data center components.
![IQ Bot cluster and data center and components](https://automationanywhere-be-prod.automationanywhere.com/bundle/iq-bot-v6.5/page/iq-bot/topics/iq-bot/architecture/../../../../iqbothadatacentercluster.png?_LANG=enus)
In this example, the IQ Bot servers and Microsoft SQL Servers have HA redundancy.
- Multiple users have access the IQ Bot cluster through their web browsers. The web browsers communicate to the IQ Bot cluster through the load balancer.
- Multiple Bot Runners communicate to the IQ Bot cluster through the load balancer.
- The server message block (SMB) file share and the Microsoft SQL Server store data from the IQ Bot cluster.
- Microsoft SQL Server uses redundancy through replication syncing to the clustered Microsoft SQL Server.
- Pros
-
Maintains availability when server failures occur within a single data center.
- Cons
-
Does not provide protection against data center outage.
- Use Cases
-
Small to medium-size businesses that do not require multi-site disaster recovery.
