How Narrowcast Server Connects to Intelligence Server

Narrowcast Server can connect to a specific Intelligence Server. Narrowcast Server does this by using one or more information sources to point to and connect to the desired Intelligence Servers.

  • Intelligence Server provides automatic load balancing for Narrowcast Server requests. Once an information source is configured, jobs using that information source go to the appropriate Intelligence Server for the most efficient response.
  • Narrowcast Server can connect to any Intelligence Server in a cluster—this does not need to be the primary node.
  • You can balance the load manually by creating multiple information sources or by using a single information source pointing to one Intelligence Server, thereby designating it to handle all Narrowcast Server requests.
