Connect 8 Performance Setup

Hello all,

I would like to get some in-depth knowledge of Connect 8/7.5 different scenario setups. In particularly i would like to know how many concurrent users could be supported with the configurations below and if there are any considerations/performance issues that I should keep in mind.

connect server + imbedded database
connect server + external database
Clustered 2 connect servers (using Microsoft Network Load Balancing) + external database
Clustered 2 connect servers (using BIG-IP LTM) + external database

Is it possible to cluster 2 virtual connect servers running on one machine to increase the concurrent usage?

Thanks for all your help.

Re: Connect 8 Performance Setup

Per the documentation, each server is designed to handle up to 500 concurrent connections, so the number you would be looking at for your four set ups would be:

500
500
1000
1000

As to having two virtual servers on one physical machine, you may run into performance issues, but if you wanted to use that set up, there is not reason why it wouldn't work. Connect 8 is supported in a VM setup.

Personally I think that having an external database is ideal, as it takes some of the work load off the Connect server.

I use one host for 2 VM's of Connect and it works great. The important thing is that the host has a lot of memory to allocate and the VM's that run your Connect are on their own network adapter.

I did in this way :
1 server has 2 xeon 3.0 mhz processor and 60gb ram
4 virtual Ms 2008R2 server on Microsoft hiperV
1x F5 load balancing device.
Total 2000 user at same time :) it is working fine. Hope so will work :)
