Dears,

Anyone have practice can share regarding the HA architecture regarding Windchill Navigate?

Does Thingworx connection server a required componet in this kind of configuration?

From the "ThingWorx 8 High Availability Administrator’s Guide":

ThingWorx HA requires the following:
  ThingWorx 8.0 or higher
    Two or more servers to operate ThingWorx in a HA environment
  Apache ZooKeeper 3.4.5 or higher
    Three servers to operate ZooKeeper in a HA environment

From the ThingWorx Connection Server Installation and Operations Guide:

The Connection Server handles all message routing to and from devices [by Thingworx.]

Navigate only makes requests to Windchill or other PLM applications, and so should have no need for the ThingWorx Connection Server.
