Engineering Workflow Management clustered environment

You can set up a clustered environment to host a Jazz® Team Server and multiple Engineering Workflow Management IBM® WebSphere® Liberty nodes.

The Engineering Workflow Management applications must be installed on multiple Liberty servers and connected by using an MQTT broker, which enables synchronization across the nodes. A load balancer is used as a front-end URL, which accepts connections and distributes the requests to one of the back-end Engineering Workflow Management nodes. The host name of the load balancer is used as public URL for the Engineering Workflow Management applications during setup. The distributed cache microservice (DCM) invalidates cache entries across the cluster nodes.

The following diagram illustrates the approach to clustering.

To install the Engineering Workflow Management applications in a clustered environment, continue with the Interactive guide: Installing Engineering Lifecycle Management using Custom mode. .
