In a multiple-host deployment, you distribute the installation of the MDM Hub components on multiple host machines. For search, you can configure any existing Process Server as the ZooKeeper and Solr servers. To provide distributed indexing and search capabilities, you can then configure other Process Servers as the Solr servers. The number of Solr servers that you can use depends on your MDM Hub environment.
The following image shows an example deployment that has multiple host machines configured for search:
In the preceding multiple-host deployment, host machine C contains a Process Server that functions as the ZooKeeper and Solr servers, and host machines D and E contain Process Servers that function as the Solr servers. The host machine A contains the Hub Server on an application server. The host machine B contains the Process and Cleanse servers on an application server. The host machine F contains a master database and an ORS database.
Even though you can enable search on multiple Process Servers, Informatica recommends that you enable search only on the Process Server that functions as the ZooKeeper server.
