JIRA 4.0 : Deploying JIRA in a clustered environment
This page last changed on Jul 07, 2009 by rkrishna.
No, though users can vote towards the JIRA clustering feature request if this is a requirement for them. If you are deploying JIRA to a clustered environment, please ensure that JIRA Webapp is deployed to only one node in the cluster. Most clustered applications support this feature (e.g. WebLogic). Also ensure that your load balancer(s) are configured to direct all requests for JIRA to the correct node in the cluster. If you wish to run JIRA across multiple nodes you will need a license for each node. You can find our discounting policy here. If you are interested in clustering for hardware failover, you can configure a distributed database, load balancer front-end and two separate servers. The primary JIRA instance runs on the main server, while the second server contains an unstarted, free development license instance of JIRA. The load balancer directs 100% of requests to the primary as long as it is responsive, but if the primary server goes down, the load balancer starts the backup instance and directs all requests there until manually reset.
