Load balancing
Web Services supports the following methods for load balancing:
Third-party load balancing
Web Services supports any third-party load balancer that supports sticky sessions. You should configure session affinity (sticky sessions) based on JSESSIONID. Once your load balancer is set up, you can use the following URL for health checks: http://<Web_Services_Host>:<Web_Services_Port>/api/v2/diagnostics/version.
If you're configuring your solution to use Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer, you don't need to set up HTTPS between your load balancer and Web Services.
Interaction Server Cluster deployment
Web Services supports Interaction Server Cluster deployment for load balancing. For more information, see the Interaction Server Cluster.
The CloudCluster Application could have one of the following connections:
- Direct connections to Interaction Server Pair
- Connection to an Application Cluster that contains a list of Interaction Server Proxies
The CloudCluster Application cannot support both connection options listed above.
When you configure the connection, the Application Parameters field must include the following string:
clusterType=eservices
