## High Availability

### Clustering

FUSE Message Broker supports reliable high performance load balancing of messages on a queue across consumers. If a consumer dies, any unacknowledged messages are redelivered to other consumers on the queue. If one consumer is faster than the others it receives more messages.

### Failover

A client can connect to one broker node in a cluster and automatically fail over to a new node in the cluster if there is a failure. On the broker side, FUSE Message Broker uses a store-and-forward method to distribute messages over a cluster.
