Hi Ryan, I don't think you can run the DSpace application itself in a clustered configuration (homogenous clusters). That, however, doesn't mean that DSpace can't benefit from a multi-node configuration. There are several parts that can be moved onto separate nodes: 1) the database server (that might in turn be clustered, but that will most likely *not* speed things up) 2) Solr server (may be also clustered, this might provide the most benefit from clustering). Do separate the statistics core (which is write-heavy) from the search and oai cores; or use ElasticSearch-based statistics instead. 3) a frontend HTTP server to serve static resources (especially bistreams) 4) use a separate syslog server to store logs As always, measure the performance benefits of each individual change you make. If you need additional details or if you're not sure what the benefits of each point are, feel free to ask.
