Tuning the components in your container environment
Depending on your document processing requirements, the number of documents, or the number of concurrent users, you might need to tune your container components for a better performance.
About this task
Use the following information to tune your container environments.
- Scaling up or scaling down a small, medium, or large profile
- You can select a deployment profile (
sc_deployment_profile_size
) and enable it during the installation. IBM Cloud Pak® for Business Automation provides small, medium, and large deployment profiles. You can set the profile at any time during the installation, in an update, or during an upgrade.For more information, see System requirements.
- Optimizing Document Processing engine Pod Counts
- When Automation Document Processing processes a document, it uses the Document Processing engine runtime engine. At deployment time, an initial number of Document Processing engine pods are deployed. This initial pod count can be improved on by going through an optimization process. For more information about this process, see How to Optimize Content Analyzer Pod Counts with ADP.
