+# Availability
+
+GitLab offers high availability options for organizations that require
+the fault tolerance and redundancy necessary to maintain high-uptime operations.
+
+Please consult our [scaling documentation](../scaling) if you want to resolve
+performance bottlenecks you encounter in individual GitLab components without
+incurring the additional complexity costs associated with maintaining a
+highly-available architecture.
+
+On this page, we present examples of self-managed instances which demonstrate
+how GitLab can be scaled out and made highly available. These examples progress
+from simple to complex as scaling or highly-available components are added.
+
+For larger setups serving 2,000 or more users, we provide
+[reference architectures](../scaling/index.md#reference-architectures) based on GitLab's
+experience with GitLab.com and internal scale testing that aim to achieve the
+right balance of scalability and availability.
+
+For detailed insight into how GitLab scales and configures GitLab.com, you can
+watch [this 1 hour Q&A](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCU8jdYzpac)
+with [John Northrup](https://gitlab.com/northrup), and live questions coming
+in from some of our customers.
+
+## High availability
+
+### Omnibus installation with automatic database failover
+
+By adding automatic failover for database systems, we can enable higher uptime with an additional layer of complexity.
+
+- For PostgreSQL, we provide repmgr for server cluster management and failover
+ and a combination of [PgBouncer](../high_availability/pgbouncer.md) and [Consul](../high_availability/consul.md) for
+ database client cutover.
+- For Redis, we use [Redis Sentinel](../high_availability/redis.md) for server failover and client cutover.
+
+You can also optionally run [additional Sidekiq processes on dedicated hardware](../high_availability/sidekiq.md)
+and configure individual Sidekiq processes to
+[process specific background job queues](../operations/extra_sidekiq_processes.md)
+if you need to scale out background job processing.
+
+### GitLab Geo
+
+GitLab Geo allows you to replicate your GitLab instance to other geographical locations as a read-only fully operational instance that can also be promoted in case of disaster.
+
+This configuration is supported in [GitLab Premium and Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/).

+
+## GitLab components and configuration instructions
+
+The GitLab application depends on the following [components](../../development/architecture.md#component-diagram).
+It can also depend on several third party services depending on
+your environment setup. Here we'll detail both in the order in which
+you would typically configure them along with our recommendations for
+their use and configuration.
+
+### Third party services
+
+Here's some details of several third party services a typical environment
+will depend on. The services can be provided by numerous applications
+or providers and further advice can be given on how best to select.
+These should be configured first, before the [GitLab components](#gitlab-components).
+
+| Component | Description | Configuration instructions |
+|--------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
+| [Load Balancer(s)](../high_availability/load_balancer.md)[^6] | Handles load balancing for the GitLab nodes where required | [Load balancer HA configuration](../high_availability/load_balancer.md) |
+| [Cloud Object Storage service](../high_availability/object_storage.md)[^4] | Recommended store for shared data objects | [Cloud Object Storage configuration](../high_availability/object_storage.md) |
+| [NFS](../high_availability/nfs.md)[^5] [^7] | Shared disk storage service. Can be used as an alternative for Gitaly or Object Storage. Required for GitLab Pages | [NFS configuration](../high_availability/nfs.md) |
+
+### GitLab components
+
+Next are all of the components provided directly by GitLab. As mentioned
+earlier, they are presented in the typical order you would configure
+them.
+
+| Component | Description | Configuration instructions |
+|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|
+| [Consul](../../development/architecture.md#consul)[^3] | Service discovery and health checks/failover | [Consul HA configuration](../high_availability/consul.md) **(PREMIUM ONLY)** |
+| [PostgreSQL](../../development/architecture.md#postgresql) | Database | [Database HA configuration](../high_availability/database.md) |
+| [PgBouncer](../../development/architecture.md#pgbouncer) | Database Pool Manager | [PgBouncer HA configuration](../high_availability/pgbouncer.md) **(PREMIUM ONLY)** |
+| [Redis](../../development/architecture.md#redis)[^3] with Redis Sentinel | Key/Value store for shared data with HA watcher service | [Redis HA configuration](../high_availability/redis.md) |
+| [Gitaly](../../development/architecture.md#gitaly)[^2] [^5] [^7] | Recommended high-level storage for Git repository data | [Gitaly HA configuration](../high_availability/gitaly.md) |
+| [Sidekiq](../../development/architecture.md#sidekiq) | Asynchronous/Background jobs | [Sidekiq configuration](../high_availability/sidekiq.md) |
+| [GitLab application nodes](../../development/architecture.md#unicorn)[^1] | (Unicorn / Puma, Workhorse) - Web-requests (UI, API, Git over HTTP) | [GitLab app HA/scaling configuration](../high_availability/gitlab.md) |
+| [Prometheus](../../development/architecture.md#prometheus) and [Grafana](../../development/architecture.md#grafana) | GitLab environment monitoring | [Monitoring node for scaling/HA](../high_availability/monitoring_node.md) |
+
+In some cases, components can be combined on the same nodes to reduce complexity as well.
+
+[^1]: In our architectures we run each GitLab Rails node using the Puma webserver
+ and have its number of workers set to 90% of available CPUs along with 4 threads.
+
+[^2]: Gitaly node requirements are dependent on customer data, specifically the number of
+ projects and their sizes. We recommend 2 nodes as an absolute minimum for HA environments
+ and at least 4 nodes should be used when supporting 50,000 or more users.
+ We also recommend that each Gitaly node should store no more than 5TB of data
+ and have the number of [`gitaly-ruby` workers](../gitaly/index.md#gitaly-ruby)
+ set to 20% of available CPUs. Additional nodes should be considered in conjunction
+ with a review of expected data size and spread based on the recommendations above.
+
+[^3]: Recommended Redis setup differs depending on the size of the architecture.
+ For smaller architectures (up to 5,000 users) we suggest one Redis cluster for all
+ classes and that Redis Sentinel is hosted alongside Consul.
+ For larger architectures (10,000 users or more) we suggest running a separate
+ [Redis Cluster](../high_availability/redis.md#running-multiple-redis-clusters) for the Cache class
+ and another for the Queues and Shared State classes respectively. We also recommend
+ that you run the Redis Sentinel clusters separately as well for each Redis Cluster.
+
+[^4]: For data objects such as LFS, Uploads, Artifacts, etc. We recommend a [Cloud Object Storage service](../object_storage.md)
+ over NFS where possible, due to better performance and availability.
+
+[^5]: NFS can be used as an alternative for both repository data (replacing Gitaly) and
+ object storage but this isn't typically recommended for performance reasons. Note however it is required for
+ [GitLab Pages](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/issues/196).
+
+[^6]: Our architectures have been tested and validated with [HAProxy](https://www.haproxy.org/)
+ as the load balancer. However other reputable load balancers with similar feature sets
+ should also work instead but be aware these aren't validated.
+
+[^7]: We strongly recommend that any Gitaly and / or NFS nodes are set up with SSD disks over
+ HDD with a throughput of at least 8,000 IOPS for read operations and 2,000 IOPS for write
+ as these components have heavy I/O. These IOPS values are recommended only as a starter
+ as with time they may be adjusted higher or lower depending on the scale of your
+ environment's workload. If you're running the environment on a Cloud provider
+ you may need to refer to their documentation on how configure IOPS correctly.
