In a clustered environment, processing is shared among three or more instances of the server. The diagram below illustrates the deployment architecture of such a configuration. Load balancing can be used to support high availability and scaling. The deployment architecture includes a load balancer, Spectrum Technology Platform nodes with Global Geocoding and Geocoding databases.
Note: Each Geocoding database MUST be installed in the same location on all of the nodes for the
cluster to work properly. For example, if the Geocoding database for "Spectrum Node
1" is installed on C:\data\, then the other Spectrum nodes' Geocoding
database must also reside on C:\data\.
