Thanks for replying!

So what happens to a player session when an edge server dies?

Do you have a way to rehydrate the session on a different server?

When the edge server dies player will reconnect to another node (load balancer will select a healthy one this time). In the same time RMS will detect that the session got lost in an abrupt way and will buffer any outgoing messages addressed to that session for a short time, just in case when player reconnects.
