We’ve been using Riak with Java client for more than two years in production, and best solution is ha-proxy. Your Java client connects to one ha-proxy, configured for round-robin to all the nodes. We run ha-proxy on our front-ends, so clients always connect to localhost.
If you’re planning to add or remove a node, just reconfigure ha-proxy and reload it (instant with no down-time). ha-proxy also gives you much better control over how unexpected failures are dealt with automatically. pb On 15 Aug 2014, at 13:19, Simon Hartley <simon.hart...@williamhill.com> wrote: > Hi, > > So I’m writing a Java client app. I’m running a 5 node Riak cluster and I > want my client to know about all the nodes to avoid single points of failure. > > Is there a best practice for automatically updating clients when new nodes > are added to a cluster?
