Global Mailbox - File Replay From Both DCs

Replay Files:

During normal operations, files often need to be replayed or redelivered for business need.

In a Global Mailbox setup:

  • Files arriving in a data center (e.g., DC1) are processed locally.

  • They are then replicated to other data centers (e.g., DC2).

  • Consumers retrieve files via their configured mailbox (global) or have files delivered via a listening protocols.

Scenario:

A file arrives in DC1 for a producer using Global Mailbox, routed and delivered to a customer that has a listening protocol (e.g. SFTP) then gets replicated to DC2.

Enhancement Needed:

We need the ability to replay a file from alternate DC if the DC that originally received the file is down.
