An unrecoverable
agent2
failure is more serious, however. Any events in the channels
of upstream first-tier agents (
agent1
instances) will be lost, and all new events gener-
ated by these agents will not be delivered either. The solution to this problem is for
agent1
to have multiple redundant Avro sinks, arranged in a
sink group
, so that if the
destination
agent2
Avro endpoint is unavailable, it can try another sink from the group.
We'll see how to do this in the next section.
