# Architecture Patterns Architecture patterns describe how to deploy UMH Core for different operational requirements. Each page explains a topology: what components are involved, how they connect, what the pattern guarantees, and when to use it. These are not step-by-step guides. They describe architectures so you can choose the right one for your site. For deployment procedures, see [Deployment](/production/deployment.md). For infrastructure-level recovery (container restarts, storage, node rescheduling), see [High Availability](/production/high-availability.md). ## Patterns * [Redundant Data Collection](/production/architecture-patterns/redundant-data-collection.md) -- two umh-core instances reading from redundant PLCs for zero data loss --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.umh.app/production/architecture-patterns.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
