      Split brain is a state when active cluster nodes lose all synchronization and heartbeat connections between them, which may lead to some serious errors. It can be a real nightmare for a system administrator to deal with the split brain consequences. To solve the problem once and for all, StarWind offers several reliable strategies allowing to prevent a split brain syndrome, and one of them is Node Majority Strategy.

      Read the full article by Sergey Sanduliak, a Technical Support Engineer at StarWind, to learn how to avoid a split brain.
