Chapter 12. Scalability, reliability, and 
availability architectures
IBM Content Manager OnDemand (Content Manager OnDemand) is a lightweight process, 
that is, the Content Manager OnDemand code itself does not require extensive system 
resources to perform the functions that are required of it. Content Manager OnDemand 
installations scale to handle both large quantities of data and many users. The total quantity 
of data that is stored or retrieved at any time is the main contributor to the resource 
consumption on the server. This chapter focuses on the scalability, reliability, and availability 
of Content Manager OnDemand systems.
In this chapter, we cover the following topics:
/SM590000Scalability, reliability, and availability defined
/SM590000Scaling a Content Manager OnDemand system
/SM590000High availability
