Introduction to SDL Tridion Docs scalability

A number of deployment scenarios offers an overview of different scaling out options.

Scalability is the ability of a system, network, or process to handle a growing amount of work in a capable manner or its ability to be expanded to accommodate that growth.

This introduction presents:
  • The high-level description of a cluster that would involve all components of Tridion Docs, and the variations caused by the use of Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions, such as ISHSTS or ADFS.
  • Levels of scaling out with Content Manager.
Some capabilities require affinity and some don't. The affinity is the fact that a request would go to a preferred destination server depending on the sender, whereas normally it would just go to the next available destination.
  • Content Manager doesn't require affinity.
