Power Booster and Power Cluster

Overview

Adobe Campaign provides you with two sets of pre-packaged architectural options for dimensioning your deployment:

  • Power Booster

    This option provides support for a single additional execution instance decoupled from the primary Adobe Campaign application instance. Dedicated execution instances can be hosted remotely or by a third party. When implemented, email execution, tracking, mirror pages, and bounce messages are handled independently of the central application functions.

  • Power Cluster

    This option provides support for 2 to N clustered execution instances decoupled from the primary Adobe Campaign application instance in relation to a given application. Clusters can be hosted remotely, in distributed deployments, and by third parties. In addition to the benefits of process isolation, the Adobe Campaign Power Cluster option enables redundancy and scale out strategies using commodity hardware for simplified evolution of SLA or performance.

Eligible applications

The Power Booster and Power Cluster options can be used by the following applications:

  • Campaign
  • Delivery
  • Message Center

Recommendations

  • An execution instance must be dedicated to a service. You cannot install a package for a service which you haven’t subscribed to. For instance, if you subscribe to the Power Booster option for the Message Center service, you may only install the Execution of transactional messages package on the dedicated execution instance. Please check your license agreement.
  • Since dedicated instances (or clusters) are Adobe Campaign instances, recommendations are the same as for a main instance. For more on this, refer to this document.
  • To properly configure the instance from a database/hardware components point of view, please contact Adobe Campaign Professional Services.
