Advantage

Disadvantage

N + 1

One server provides
backup for multiple
servers in the cluster

High resource avail-
ability

resources to
support multiple
cluster node
failures

Multiway Running

applications

Application load
balancing

Must ensure that
the failover cluster
nodes have ample
resources available
to handle the addi-
tional workload

Cascading

Running applications
migrate to the next
pre-assigned cluster
node

Higher availability

The cluster node
next in line for
failover may not
have ample
resources available
to handle the addi-
tional workload of
the failed node

N-Way
migration

Any running applica-
