Omnidex Snapshots can be easily copied to multiple servers for additional scalability. This replication can provide completely independent environments, even with independent web servers and application servers. Load balancers can be used to distribute traffic between the multiple servers to achieve extraordinary scalability.
Some applications will allow multiple application servers to point to the same location on a SAN to located the files of an Omnidex Snapshot. This works well as long as the data and indexes are accessed in a read-only mode, and as long as there is sufficient I/O bandwidth available on the SAN and the channels to the SAN.
