Does Pacemaker+CoroSync = Redhat Cluster Suite OR Pacemaker = Redhat Cluster Suite

- If we are going to configure an HA with the help of Pacemaker. There is a need to configure heartbeats which can sync the resource state from one HA node to another HA node of of cluster, then CoroSync required to use ? or how the resource state will sync between both HA nodes. Please correct if I am wrong.
- I am searching a paid support/commercial version of Pacemaker+CoroSync. Does Pacemaker+CoroSync(community version) = Redhat Cluster Suite(commercial version) ? OR Pacemaker(community version) = Redhat Cluster Suite(commercial version), please correct if I am wrong.

Pacemaker requires corosync.

RHCS is the old cluster stack and was last used in CentOS 6. If you need support then buy RHEL with the HA licensing.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Dear TrevorH : Let me make my query easy > If suppose I buy RHEL7 with cluster add-on then the technology which is being used behind RHEL7 HA is Pacemaker + CoroSync. Right ?
