US Patent 11561872 High availability database system

A database system includes a master server, a pair of slave servers and a main storage carrier. Each slave server is provided with a database management system (DBMS). The main storage carrier and the pair of slave servers uses the ISCSI protocol to make the pair of slave servers serving as the DBMS and the main storage carrier serving as a database (DB) connect and communicate to further make the DBMS and the DB independent and separate. The master server performs service assignment to the pair of slave servers according to a predetermined weight value. All connections of the database are directed to the slave server with a high weight value, and the other slave server with a low weight value serves as a standby.
