Load Balancing with LogicalDOC

The purpose of this configuration is to maximize the performances distributing the CPU and RAM loads among a set of nodes called a cluster. The most part of the stress in a large installation is due to the operations of parsing, indexing and search. So care must be taken in the full-text engine.

We will use the following technologies:

  • JGroups to cluster LogicalDOC instances
  • Solr as indexing and search engine

Poposed configuration

Database: the database is shared among all nodes. It could be a clustered database. Filesystem: we will use a shared filesystem common to all nodes. We can use the multiple volumes and/or dedicated NAS. Application Server: each node is a single LogicalDOC instance with its own full-text engine
