Forum: CFEngine Help Subject: Can CFEngine 3 scale to support a 1 million + Enterprise? Author: jsabowabo Link to topic: https://cfengine.com/forum/read.php?3,25558,25558#msg-25558
I've done a fair amount of reading on CFEngine 3, and I see references that it can scale, but I don't see how it can scale into the 100,000 + range. Can CFEngine 3 support a distributed enterprise (Like the U.S. Army) with upwards of 1,000,000 nodes? As you may know the Army currently uses MS SCCM, and I'm looking at alternatives as part of my thesis work. One of my specific concerns with scalablity is the capacity of each Hub, which seems to be around 2,000 clients. Another concern is the promise.cf file, which it seems would have to maintained separately for each major organization. Another concern is reporting. Can this product really do rollup reporting for 1 million clients and servers? The demo I watched seemed scalable for a few thousand nodes, not hundreds of thousands. What am I missing?
