Processing Cluster customization

In order to make better use of the available resources at infrastructure level, it is possible to increase the demands or specialise them to serve or execute the activities that is part of the LIBSAFE processes.

Since the platform allows associating one or several nodes to its logical structure, it is also possible that each node can specialize in performing different activities by parallelizing their executions. In this way, a node can have multiple instances of the same service in addition to the common or typical services, or even have only one dedicated service in multiple instances. All this allows performing complex tasks in parallel and optimizing execution times or processing high volumes of data faster.

LIBSAFE has a service configuration panel in which it is very easy to define how the physical infrastructure is to be used in favour of performance.

With options to parameterize the minimum and maximum number of instances, to define always active services or to parameterize the own configurations of the services, besides the option to move with the "drag and drop" effect some service, it is possible to manage each one of the nodes of the system as well as to order them for their visualization in the services management panel (Processing Cluster).

There are services such as WEBINTERFACE or COMPLIANCECHECKER that have special characteristics and are treated differently from the rest. WEBINTERFACE can only have a maximum of one instance in a node and COMPLIANCECHECKER is not accessible through this configuration panel as it is the master service of the environment.

For the changes to take effect in the system, it is necessary that the services and nodes are stopped; this so that the configurations can be applied correctly. Some changes may not force nodes and services to be stopped, so LIBSAFE will indicate this through the interface by means of specific warnings for each case.
