Does Alfresco 3.4e CE support clustering?

Question

I have just a simple question to answer !

Does Alfresco 3.4e Community Edition support clustering ?

If yes, then what are the supported clustering methods (e.g is JGroups supported?) ?

Regards,

Answer 1

It will work with Community, yes. There are a few little bits in Enterprise that'll make the setup and monitoring easier, which coupled with the support you get may mean you'd be better off going to Enterprise if you can.

You should probably start with this presentation to get you through the basics of Alfresco clustering. Once you've understood that, you likely want to read the Alfresco documentation on Setting up high availability systems which covers the concepts, initial cluster config, setting up JGroups etc.

You may also find it useful to read this guide on the Alfresco Wiki for instructions on setting it up, including how to configure JGroups as part of that process, if you haven't already.
