The white-paper presented in this pages takes an in depth look at building highly available SmartFoxServer clusters, with no single point of failure, high horizontal scalability and failure resilience.

The study presented in this document is particularly suited for MMO communities, virtual worlds and large gaming systems, where a high server capacity and quick crash recovery are determinant for the success of the service.

The integration of SmartFoxServer with the Terracotta technology, opens an unlimited amount of possibilities for creating the next-generation of highly scalable back-ends for massive web-based games and applications.

The great flexibility provided by this combination allows anyone, from small startups to larger enterprises, to benefit of the clustering services at a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions, and with best overall performance.

Additionally the non-intrusive nature of Terracotta allows the developers to concentrate on their application logic, without the need of introducing and learning new dependencies.

» A51: Clustering SmartFoxServer using Terracotta

A51Integrated is a Canada based media agency with high competence in SmartFoxServer development.

After having worked with both SmartFoxServer and Terracotta they have produced a detailed white paper on how to setup a clustered environment, starting from the OS installation up to the SmartFox and Terracotta configuration.

The table of contents include:

1. Preparing the hardware
2. Preparing the Operating System
3. Preparing the Software
4. Software Configuration
5. Starting up the Cluster
6. Monitoring the Services
