Note: A high-availability setup can be created for this application by adding additional nodes and using a network load balancer. We have tested the F5 load balancer and it was successful; other load balancers should also work. We also support the SQL Always On capability of Microsoft SQL Server.

Considerations

  1. The recommendations above will vary based on the complexity of the workflow solutions.

  2. If the number of users or the load increases, the system requirements will also increase.

  3. The storage requirements will increase based on the document size (the size of the Excel File and supporting documents, and/or the size of the Form and its attachments). The storage requirements will also increase according to the complexity of the workflow solution.

  4. If you are using the staging system for performance testing, we recommend a system configuration which is equivalent to that of the production setup.

  5. For staging, the best practice is to use the same deployment architecture you use for the production setup (with lower system requirements).

  6. SQL server data must be purged or archived at regular intervals to avoid application issues. Based on your usage data, you can determine the frequency with which the SQL server data needs to be purged or archived.

Note: Please contact Winshuttle Customer Support with any questions.
