Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 7:
8. A cloud-based environment comprising:
a first server comprising a processor and a memory coupled with and readable by the processor of the first server and storing therein a set of instructions which, when executed by the processor of the first server, causes the processor of the first server to execute one or more streaming sessions of the cloud-based environment in an active mode; and
a second server communicatively coupled with the first server, the second server comprising a processor and a memory coupled with and readable by the processor of the second server and storing therein a set of instructions which, when executed by the processor of the second server, causes the second server to execute the one or more streaming sessions of the cloud-based environment in a standby mode, wherein memory and state of the one or more streaming sessions are maintained between the active mode of the first server and the standby mode of the second server, and wherein:
the set of instructions stored in the memory of the first server further causes the processor of the first server to execute an arbiter,
the set of instructions stored in the memory of the second server further causes the processor of the second server to execute an arbiter,
the arbiter executed by the processor of the first server and the arbiter executed by the processor of the second server perform arbitration of a plurality of states between the first server and the second server,
the set of instructions stored in the memory of the second server and executed by the processor of the second server further causes the processor of the second server to detect, based on performing the arbitration of the plurality of states between the first server and the second server, a failure of the first server, and in response to detecting the failure of the first server, transition execution of the one or more streaming sessions from the standby mode to the active mode and provide, to a load balancer of the cloud-based environment, a health status message providing a health status for the second server, wherein the health status message initiates a failover from the first server to the second server and wherein the failover from the first server to the second server is completed by the load balancer.
