  • Only One Log Server Is Supported Per Environment

The current architecture supports only a single AOT Log Server per environment, and both Web Studio and Director/Monitor are designed to work with only one Log Server configuration. All components must point to this same Log Server; configuring or distributing workloads across multiple Log Servers is not supported today. This single Log Server can handle up to 128,000 active component connections and process up to 10,000 log events per second, which is sufficient for most deployments. Since these limits are based on connection capacity and log-throughput, not on the number of components, even very large environments can operate with one Log Server as long as they remain within throughput thresholds.
However, customers with extremely high log volumes during peak activity may reach ingestion or indexing limits due to the absence of horizontal scaling. Support for multiple Log Servers and broader scaling options will be introduced in future releases as part of the evolving architecture.

  • Running the AOT Log Server on a Windows VM hosted on XenServer is not supported. XenServer does not support nested virtualization, which prevents Docker from running inside the guest VM. As a result, the Log Server container cannot be deployed in this configuration.
