What is Ozeki Cluster?

Ozeki Cluster is a high-availability solution designed to ensure continuous operation of communication services, such as SMS and voice, even in the event of hardware or software failures. It allows multiple Ozeki servers to work together in a coordinated way, where one server acts as the primary node while others remain on standby, ready to take over automatically if the primary server becomes unavailable. This setup improves system reliability, reduces downtime, and guarantees uninterrupted service for critical messaging and communication tasks.
