Install MongoDB on a separate machine (EXPERT METHOD FOR SPECIAL CASES)

Only in special cases, can MongoDB be installed on a separate machine.

Possible special cases:

• When a lot of memory usage is expected from the CLOUDFLOW server. For example in case of large RIP tasks, heavy PACKZflow processing or a lot of PROOFSCOPE pre-rendering.
• IT setup preferences:
  • When MongoDB is installed on a separate machine/instance, the database can be managed as a separate IT resource. Consequently, separated CPU, Memory and HDD space can be allocated to it.
  • When configuring CLOUDFLOW for load-balancing or a high-availability setup it makes sense to install MongoDB on a separate box from the CLOUDFLOW Application server.
