Active-Active vs. Active-Passive High-Availability Clustering
Updated by John Carl Villanueva on
Active-Active High Availability Cluster
An active-active cluster typically comprises at least two nodes, both actively running the same kind of service simultaneously. The primary purpose of an active-active cluster is to achieve load balancing. Load balancing distributes workloads across all nodes to prevent any single node from getting overloaded. Because more nodes are available to serve, there will also be a marked improvement in throughput and response times.

What Port Does SFTP Use?
Updated by Van Glass on
By default, SFTP (SSHfile transfer protocol) uses port number 22, but can be configured to listen on ports other than port 22.
SFTP only requires one port for moving data over an internet connection, making SFTP more secure and easier to use than other file-sharing protocols, such as FTP/S, which require trading partners to open a range of ports behind their firewalls.
