Failover version with three-node cluster

SKB Kontur presented updates to the service for controlling privileged PAM users from Kontur. Guides. The changes help users ensure the stable operation of the service and control inputs using different protocols. The company announced this on January 27, 2026.

The main update is the fault-tolerant version. PAM provides uninterrupted services even if the primary server is unavailable due to failures or congestion. This is important for companies where any shutdown of the information system can lead to financial losses or a slowdown in business processes.

The failover version of PAM uses a cluster of three nodes (devices), each of which is ready for request processing. The system operates in active/active mode: any request can be directed to any of the three nodes, and the result of its processing is synchronously transmitted to all cluster members (devices). This ensures complete data consistency and service continuity even if one or more nodes fail.

This architecture ensures high availability of PAM services, minimizes downtime and eliminates data loss in case of failures.
