Introduction
opHA-MB 5.0 introduces the concept of using a Primary & multiple Poller servers:
...
Message Bus to transfer data between opHA servers, as an alternative to the Web Service used to transfer data in earlier releases.
opHA-MB 5.0 uses one or more Primary & one or more Peer servers and a Message Bus:
A Primary is a server that keeps the information of all the pollers Peers and it is where we can read all the information from.
The Pollers, collect their own data, and send that information to the Primary when it is requested.

New release, installation guide to setup/license FirstWave opHA 5.0.0 (opHA Message Bus).
...
Consumer (ophad running on Primarys) reads data continuously off the Message Bus and stores it in the database
The Producer (ophad running on Peers) has a change stream setup for the collections and receives update from the database if there is any. This change stream data is pushed onto the Message Bus.
Here are new terms used in opHA 5 together with their meanings.
Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
Message Bus | A message bus provides a messaging infrastructure for one or more applications to deliver messages to one or more other applications. |
ophad | ophad is the daemon for opHA Message Bus, which opHA uses to communicate with a Message Bus. |
Producer | an instance of the ophad process running in 'producer' mode (as per configuration). This will typically be running on the same server instances as the primary. |
Consumer | an instance of the ophad process running in 'consumer' mode (as per configuration). This will typically be running on the same server instance as the poller (or mirror) |

A single installer that installs and configures opHA and the nats.io Message Bus product in either replicated or non-replicated node.
Non replicated mode is when the setup has a single Primary, the Main Primary. A single instance of NATS service and a single instance of Mongodb is run on the Main Primary.
Installer and the installation guide to setup opHAMB in a replicated mode. In a replicated mode Replicated mode is when both Mongodb on Primary and Nats NATS needs to be replicated. Replicated mode can tolerate the failure of the Main Primary. To this end the installer sets is used to set up have a Main Primary and atleast at least one Secondary Primary.
There In replicated mode, three instances of NATS is are needed to be run running to tolerate a one node failure. Main Primary and Secondary Primary runs on an instance of NATS each. A Poller can be used to run the third instance.
Like wise Mongodb mongodb is run as a primary mongodb instance on Main Primary. Secondary Primary runs a replica as a secondary mongodb instance. The third instance of mongodb is run as an arbiter and can be run on one of the Poller where NATS is run.
