Scaling the controller

Referring to the blog post here: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Engine-Works-Blog/Considerations-for-Scaling-Alteryx-Server/bc-p/53...

What is the recommendation for scaling the Controller (assuming controller is running on a separate node)? If Gallery is scaled for additional web users, it needs Controller to fetch the status or submit jobs. If workers are scaled for adding more parallelism, these workers also need the controller. Controller can be a single point of failure. What is the recommended approach to scale Controller?

Hi,

 

Check out this article: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Server-Knowledge-Base/High-Availability-Controller/ta-p/141...

Note that there will only be ONE active Controller at any given time, and it will be a active-passive setup when we talk about HA for controller in Alteryx Server.

 

Cheers,
