We hear you and see a clear demand for this feature.

I want to say that implementing these features requires a lot of investment, and in 2021 Plesk team keeps focusing on the delivery of other improvements (sad, but true).

We will back to the re-evaluation of these features at the beginning of the next year.

Please continue to share your use cases and requirements, and it would really helpful if you point to existing solutions that we can review and check before implementation.

Your feedback is important to us. Thank you, everyone.

    I would love to have this, or on site level. lets say you build a site and active sync this to another server.

    Put this Option in your paid extension! is automatic also available ?

  • Thomas commented  ·   ·  Report

    Automationsettings for DB replication between two Plesk servers to have a live backup or a second DB Server for Performance resons.

    I could even imagine to use the upcoming Cloudflare loadbalancing function and two Pleskserver for higher performance or just high availability.

    cluster is crucial, we need that option. also the ability to have more concurrent connections.

  • Jan Bludau commented  ·   ·  Report

    i agree this would be a very nice "why using plesk?" answer.

    this sync would always be a nice functional backup.

    If there would be a failover functionality in Plesk, we would most probably choose this solution for hosting 15 000 hosting accounts. But, it does not and failover/cluster is a must for us.

    Let me know when you have the functionality in place ;-)

  • Robbie commented  ·   ·  Report

    Anxious to see the new plesk multi-server roll out fully in 17, but this would dramatically improve our ability to host sites in a highly available manner, even when they are already hosted on Azure or AWS. I'd vote 5 times if I could.

    not needed anymore - i have created my own Sync Solution with Failover
    If you Need some Solutions for Failover, let me know via Email

    i wish this Feature would be on top of your todo-list ...

    Please can you tell me, are you resolved user data issues for plesk clustering. I want to also deploy cluster with plesk but issue is that how to mange users details after failover.

    I would love to see something like this. Maybe this could be accomplished by allowing at installation time the option to have the PSA and Website files/databases assigned to a separate location, possibly a Percona DB cluster and NFS file storage cluster. Then each subsequent plesk server could connect to the common storage cluster...

    Obviously a lot of other details to figure out regarding pushing updates to all nodes without breaking the cluster, IP addressing issues, etc...

    But this would be a great feature for ensuring that your services stay online, even if hardware fails...

  • Sandro Gehri commented  ·   ·  Report

    It would be very nice, if it would be possible to use Plesk in a redundant environment, like a master / slave configuration. Where the slave can take over if the master isn't available anymore.
    Or even better a load balanced environment, where all Plesk servers have the same functionality (like master - master replication in MySQL) and an outage of a single server does not interrupt any services at all.

  • Aneesh Joseph commented  ·   ·  Report

    Mirror two servers so that one can be used when primary server is down.

  • Alexander Maassen commented  ·   ·  Report

    Well, if it's just email, just coded something for this in php ;)
    The only thing you need to change is the source from where it should copy stuff.
    Obviously only works on debian/ubuntu flavour servers and yes, it needs root (because of the file permissions for the files it needs to read to connect to the db/get the key)
