Hello All,

We are starting work on PBS multi-server (active active, load balancing) project. Please find some initial thoughts about his architectural considerations, at: [https://pbspro.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PD/pages/1507164161/PBS+Pro+multi-server+project+architecture+and+design](https://pbspro.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PD/pages/1507164161/PBS+Pro+multi-server+project+architecture+and+design)

Currently, we have uploaded an initial set of architecture considerations. We would love to hear about clarifications and constructive feedback. Over time, we will add more details on every section as sub-pages to this root page.

Thanks and Regards,  
Subhasis

Hello,

There has been significant architectural approach changes in this project. Please review the updated design slides at [https://openpbs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PD/pages/1507164161/PBS+Pro+multi-server+project+architecture+and+design](https://openpbs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PD/pages/1507164161/PBS+Pro+multi-server+project+architecture+and+design).

Particularly, we would like inputs, feedback and ideas on how to generate unique jobids across the multiple server instances. A few ideas are listed around the end of the slide-deck, but they all have their pros and cons and hence we would like inputs for a choice.

Regards,  
Subhasis
