What Is RSYNC on Dedicated Servers?

March 26th, 2010

If you have a mission critical website running on your dedicated servers in uk then you should have your uk dedicated servers mirrored so that your website won’t face any downtime even if your server fails. This is because of  the Mirroring done of your master server. If your master server fails due to any reason, immediately slave server takes the charge and your websites will not face any downtime in this whole process. If I have guessed correctly, you are thinking about the data right ? Mirroring is done with the help of some software’s and one of such software is the RYSNC.

RSYNC is a software which transfers the data from the master server to the slave server regularly i.e. on regular time intervals. For example, if  some data is added on your master server then RSYNC software will transfer this data to the slave server. This is done on regular intervals of time and this process is automated. RSYNC transfers the data at a very high speed and RSYNC is capable of doing this as RSYNC uses a fast algorithm which is reliable enough and transfers all the data with a good speed. RSYNC has a very great benefit and the reason behind RYSNC being fact is the same.

What is RSYNC on dedicated servers ?

RSYNC will only transfer the files which are not present on the slave server i.e. instead of sending the entire files to the slave server it will only send the files which are not present on the slave server. This feature makes RYSNC very fast and reliable enough. With the help of RSYNC the data is transferred easily on the slave server at a very great speed. Also, it is not necessary that you should have a master server and slave server for the use of RSYNC. It can also be used to transfer the data from one web hosting account to another account. But the reason that this benefit is not mentioned is the fact that this kind of service is not asked for.

RSYNC is free of cost and you do not have to pay any charges for this. There is no license fees required for RSYNC. As RSYNC has so many benefits, almost all the web hosting providers use RSYNC for the server mirroring solution. It is reliable, fast and free to use so you should also go for RSYNC if you are looking for server mirroring solution.
