Clustering Requirements
In Integration Server, a cluster is defined as multiple Integration Server instances that point to the same ISInternal database component and connect to the same Cache Manager on a Terracotta Server Array. A cluster can include multiple Integration Server installations as well as multiple server instances within an Integration Server installation.
