Choosing a Deployment Architecture
The architecture used in a deployment will vary depending on the size and purpose of the deployment.
This section contains examples of deployment architecture, including a small-scale deployment useful
for test and trial deployments and a fully-redundant large-scale setup for production deployments.
13.1. Small-Scale Deployment
This diagram illustrates the network architecture of a small-scale CloudPlatform deployment.
• A firewall provides a connection to the Internet. The firewall is configured in NAT mode. The
firewall forwards HTTP requests and API calls from the Internet to the Management Server. The
Management Server resides on the management network.
• A layer-2 switch connects all physical servers and storage.
• A single NFS server functions as both the primary and secondary storage.
• The Management Server is connected to the management network.
