mongolab提供了一个flip-flop 正反器的replica set复制集演示，其通过一个真实的replica set来演示自动的failover。 该真实环境包括三个节点：replica member “flip”和”flop”。每60秒，primary将会自己让自己不可用”step-down”，之后集群将failover到另一个节点上，60秒后再反转回来。

同时mongolab还提供了一个可视化的replica set 的election过程

flip-flop 的初衷是为了可视化演示复制集的election过程，让开发者能更清楚了解这一过程，以便能写出更好的客户端连接代码。同时mongolab还给出了一个连接URL:
