start with the question "How you deploy your NetScaler?"
.NetScaler came across a long way from being a packet engine on the kernel base basic multi-user mode (nCore) platform and today, you can cluster the whole nCore devices. All flavors of NetScaler (VPX, MPX and VPX on SDX) support cluster deployment mode. With version 10.1, we support the most important features in cluster mode and therefore we see more and more customers deploying Cluster. We also recommend that you deploy an HA pair as cluster 2 nodes because it offers better computing power, throughput and overall system resources. Your investment is fully used in the cluster configuration with 2 nodes while you get the performance and scalability benefits.
As we get more next cluster deployments, it is important to understand what is new and how you should approach for optimal use of resources. There are many topics of interest here and we will try to cover the key topics in the next couple blogs
Quick Facts Cluster NetScaler :.
- NetScaler cluster nodes
- Built on NetScaler nCore architecture
- All forms of devices can be grouped
- Cluster can be formed with 2 to 32 nodes
- Remains single system image to the end user
- No frames or the new equipment needed
- nodes can be placed in different racks on L2
- dynamic changes allowed in the run time
Some of the key benefits:
- Provides linear scalability
- Higher Throughput
- scalability Configuration
- In -Constructed fault tolerance
- active active support
- carrier-active standby
- Unified configuration
- Unified Monitoring
- NITRO Unified API
- Allows HA to be moved to a cluster
This is how the topology logic looks like:
I hope that you determine the answer to the first question and yes now deployed in cluster mode is the way to go !! In this series of blogs, we'll learn about the different concepts and technologies involved in building this great architecture ...
