ThingWorx cluster deployment for horizontal scalability

[seanccc]

Hi , 

My customer has 700 devices connected to ThingWorx in factory A.  The customer wants to has another 1000 devices in factory B  connected to ThingWorx next year.

Single server may not stand it , so I'm thinking the horizontal scalability.  I only found guide for high available deployment but didn't find guide for horizontal scalability deployment ,  does ThingWorx support cluster deployment for horizontal scalability ? 

Regards,

Sean

The device number shared by you are not very high to tackle load by a single server. Although it depends on he use case and many other factors like properties per device/frequency of data etc .Right now it's active/passive configuration using HA deployment. I believe your question is about many TWX server sharing load instead of having an active/passive configuration for that in future release (TWX 9.0) cluster deployment will come.

@mnarang ,

Yes, my question is about many TWX server sharing load.  Do you know the time plan of releasing ThingWorx 9.0 ?
