Implement Multi-Seedlink Support for Single Stations #132

Open mrdimentio opened 10 months ago

mrdimentio commented 10 months ago

Currently, GlobalQuake relies on a single seedlink server for data collection for each seismic station. This poses two main challenges: increased wait times for data retrieval and lack of redundancy in case the server goes down.

To improve performance and reliability, it would be advantageous to implement multi-seedlink support for each station. This way, data can be fetched in parallel from multiple sources, significantly reducing wait times. Additionally, having more than one seedlink source ensures that if one server encounters an issue, another can take over, maintaining uninterrupted data collection for the station in question.

Hi, thanks for the suggestion! Though this issue is a duplicate for issue #117, I will close the second one as this has better explanation.
