Scale-out involves running an
Micro Focus Enterprise Server for .NET installation across multiple, clustered machines. In a cluster environment:
- The setup uses a single Microsoft SQL Server installation that operates on one or more machines.
- The setup uses a load balancer to distribute processing between machines in the cluster.
The machines in the cluster can be either physical or virtual.
Scaling out involves:
- Setting up an installation to run on multiple machines.
- Setting up network load balancing to define the cluster.
- Configuring the service endpoints, that is configuring the locations of the various
Micro Focus Enterprise Server for .NET services operating on the cluster machines, so that they can communicate with each other.
- Configuring network load balancing to handle distribution of traffic.
