Cantech Cloud | Magento Cluster

Auto-Scalable Magento Cluster

Magento is one of the best eCommerce CMS systems available today. Based on numerous IT-technologies, it has flexible modular architecture and an agile ecosystem that can be continually adapted, customized and extended for an e-commerce website, benefiting from a large variety of embedded features like data catalog management, marketing tools, analytics, SEO engine optimization, reporting, etc. Choosing the right platform is the only first step.

Magento Cluster Topology

This auto-scalable Magento Cluster solution has the default structure as shown in the scheme below.

Magento, PHP based eCommerce platform, is packaged as an advanced highly reliable and auto-scalable cluster on top of certified Cantech Cloud dockerized stack templates with the following topology:

Varnish load balancer is supplemented with NGINX server as HTTPS proxy
Scalable NGINX PHP application servers with preconfigured automatic horizontal scaling to handle load spikes
MySQL DB Cluster with asynchronous master-slave replication to ensure high availability, fault tolerance and data security
Redis Sessions node to retain user session parameters
Redis Cache node for content cache storing
Elastic Data Storage node for media files

Herewith, each container within a cluster receives the default vertical scaling limit up to 8 cloudlets (equal to 1 GB of RAM and 3.2 GHz of CPU) and a set of load alerts (to notify you when the resource consumption is close to the limit).

Also, it’s worth noting that when you scale either Load Balancer or Application Server layer, the appropriate configurations are automatically adjusted to include the data on all application server nodes the load should be distributed across. In addition, the application servers layer is automatically scaled by the system based on the amount of incoming traffic in order to handle the changeable load.
