Supplier Consumer Architecture
The following diagram describes how the supplier servers replicate to each
consumer in the

Figure 9-5

Each of the three consumer servers is updated by the two supplier servers as
shown in Figure 9-5. This ensures that the consumers will not be affected if there
is a failure in one of the supplier servers.
