Hi Nate,

thanks for the pointer.

after going thru that wiki page, it seems that implementing Galaxy in a cluster (SGE for instance) is pretty much compatible with that extra config (Load balancing) that could increase even more the performance by running various Galaxy processes right?

I was wondering whether such combination (e.g. SGE + LoadBalancing) has already been tested by somebody? if so, what about the performance gain? Is there a recommended way to setting it up? (I've just setup our Galaxy instance to use SGE).

Hi Erick, I haven't done it with SGE, but our sites do use multiprocess and TORQUE PBS. The two setups are basically unrelated so should work together fine. The performance benefits are pretty great, especially when using set_metadata_externally. --nate

cheers, Erick

Hi Erick,

Assaf Gordon's document on it is here:

I am working on integrating all of our "Production Server" documentation for the developer conference.

Hi,

where can I find some more info/docs about 'load balancing' in Galaxy? it seems that the right place is:

http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/Config/LoadBalancing

as indicated in the universe_wsgi.ini (enable_job_running).

cheers, Erick
