Deploying the Front End Application

You can deploy the Front End Application as follows:

• Deploying a single instance of the Front End Application on a single server may be acceptable for some applications.
• Deploying multiple instances of the Front End Application across a cluster of servers provides failover support and allows for load balancing and may be required for high performance applications.

Start with one server hosting the Front End Application. If testing reveals that the server is CPU-bound, you may want to deploy an additional server hosting the Front End Application to increase overall performance.

If your Front End Application is performing a large amount of processing, then you may want to use more servers.
