title: Should BizTalk 2009 be Windows Clustered?
body: <p>We are currently building out a Production BizTalk environment for high availability. We have built out several Dev and QA environments without issue, but none of these have been load balanced or clustered.</p>
  
  <p>Should the BizTalk 2009 Production environment be Windows Clustered? According to the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=9729" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Microsoft Tech Poster</a>, it should be load balanced between two servers, but only clustered for certain adapters. </p>
  
  <p>What is the best practice in this situation?</p>
