Configuring load balancing to isolate development nodes

When you install multiple engines and proxies, the proxies load balance users randomly across all engines by default. This can be modified so that a proxy only talks to its local engine or to a sub-set of the engines, which caters for a number of deployment options to support various scenarios.

It is recommended to use separate development nodes when performing selective synchronization of apps.

Development activities such as writing scripts and running reloads often require a lot of system resources. It can therefore be beneficial to isolate the development activities to a specific node away from the normal user activities.

In this deployment example, the Qlik Sense site consists of the following nodes:

  • Production node A
  • Production node B
  • Production node C
  • Development node 1
  • Development node 2
  • A proxy node with 3 virtual proxies. This node can reside on any of the nodes above.

Multi-node site with separate production and development nodes.
