[Adam]: Makes sense, but that can be handled outside of Keystone using HA and Heartbear and awhole slew of technologies. Each Keystone server can validate each other's tokens.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">For cross-site KeyStone HA, the backend of HA can leverage MySQL Galera cluster for multisite database synchronous replication to provide high
availability, but for the KeyStone front-end the API server, it’s web service and accessed through the endpoint address ( name, or domain name, or ip address ) , like http://.... or ip address.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">AFAIK, the HA for web service will usually be done through DNS based geo-load balancer in multi-site scenario. The shortcoming for this HA is that
the fault recovery ( forward request to the health web service) will take longer time, it's up to the configuration in the DNS system. The other way is to put a load balancer like LVS ahead of KeyStone web services in multi-site. Then either the LVS is put
in one site(so that KeyStone client only configured with one IP address based endpoint item, but LVS cross-site HA is lack), or in multisite site, and register the multi-LVS’s IP to the DNS or Name server(so that KeyStone client only configured with one Domain
name or name based endpoint item, same issue just mentioned).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Therefore, I still think that keystone client with a fail-safe design( primary KeyStone server, the second KeyStone server ) will be a “very high
gain but low invest” multisite high availability solution. Just like MySQL itself, we know there is some outbound high availability solution (for example, PaceMaker+ColoSync+DRDB), but also there is Galera like inbound cluster ware.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
