In which use case Multiple renderer is used in Dispatcher
I am trying to understand when it make sense to use multiple renderer in dispatcher.any configuration. For example I have this setup.
On Dispatcher-1 server:
/renders {
/0001 {
/hostname "https://publish-1.com"
/port "8443"
}
/0002 {
/hostname "https://publish-2.com"
/port "8443"
}
}
On Dispatcher-2 server:
/renders {
/0001 {
/hostname "https://publish-1.com"
/port "8443"
}
/0002 {
/hostname "https://publish-2.com"
/port "8443"
}
}
Now as per my understanding dispatcher will forward the traffic to either publish-1 or publish-2 server depending on the time taken by the respective publish server.
When I look into this page then I see there is no configuration which makes it possible to direct the traffic from Dispatcher-1 to Publish-2. It is always Dispatcher-1 to Publish-1 or Dispatcher-2 to Publish-2. If Publish-2 goes down then the request landing on Dispatcher-2 will not be processed.
Could you please clarify what is the use of only one-to-one setup and when it make sense to have one-to-many setup?
Thanks for your help!
