What Are Orchestrators?
Imagine orchestrators as the vigilant guardians of your server infrastructure. Their job? To keep a watchful eye on your servers 24/7. If one of your servers ever decides to take an unscheduled break, orchestrators jump into action. They not only find a new server to replace the one that's down but also seamlessly integrate it into the whole server balancing act.
Why Leader Election Matters
Think of leader election as the epic showdown among orchestrators. It's the moment when they decide who gets to wear the crown – or in this case, who becomes the leader orchestrator. If the current leader ever has a bad day and goes offline, a new leader gets elected from the ranks of worker orchestrators, ensuring the show goes on.
