Clusters

In Business Studio, a cluster is a group of Business Engines sharing the same token, configuration database, and Grafana instance. Clusters appear in the left-hand sidebar, each with two dedicated pages:

  • Load Balancing
  • Settings

High performance is a cornerstone of the Business Intelligence platform. Our cluster load balancing approach enhances efficiency by distributing alerts optimally across connected Business Engines. The architecture ensures specific queries run on designated engines, eliminating redundant query execution.

The current design prevents duplication by executing queries on assigned Business Engines, avoiding unnecessary repetition.
