Clustering XpoLog has several key advantages for enterprises environments:The most efficient deployment of XPLG is a cluster one. The cluster may be deployed as multiple processes on the same machine at described in this article, or on multiple machines.
The clustering mechanism of XPLG manages all its tasks automatically and dynamically based on the available cluster processes.
A clustered deployment has some key advantages:
- Scalability - by adding additional processes, support any required volume.
- Users activity vs. back end processing - a separation between the users activity and the backend processes of data in order to maintain high quality of service.
- Multiple points of failure - all cluster nodes may function as alerting and processing nodes in cases of failures to avoid loss of data / loss of service.
- Fast Disaster Recovery (DR) - XpoLog has automated procedures to maintain configuration backups that may be easily used to restore a system.High Availability (HA) - Upon cluster node failure the cluster manager immediately identifies it and alerts. Until the failed node resumes, its processes are automatically assigned to another node to ensure all activities are performed.
- Fault tolerance - During a cluster node failure or following an entire cluster failure, XpoLog recovers immediately and accurately to complete undigested data, reports and monitors.
It is recommended to consult with XpoLog support prior to setting up the clustered environment.

A basic cluster of XpoLog may be consisted of 2 such separated runs at least 2 processes running on the same machine (commonly, this will be is suitable for smaller small-mid environments as an initial clustered deployment):
XpoLog Multiple Machines Cluster
A more advanced clustering deployment would be usage of 1-N UI nodes and 1-M Processor nodes to support users load and high daily volumes while preserving excellent service. See more details at the cluster installation guide.
The machines that runs XpoLog may be physical or virtual.
