Big Plans

Hey everyone,

In the next 2 weeks or so I’ll be purchasing a second Dell PowerEdge R610 which will be used for both real-time load balancing for Plex as well as failover for the entire VM the Plex Media Server is hosted on. This way, if one server or VM goes down it will be shifted to the other working server. The networking is already redundant, as is the storage and soon the entire system will be.

In regards to the real time load balancing, this leaves room for an unlimited amount of servers which can carry the load of transcoding and serving up media meaning a higher quality experience for you all.

Regards,

Team LightSpeed
