What is the recommended scalability limits to consider when designing a WebUI server on BigFix...

The WebUI is a web-based interface that provides access to the flexibility and power of BigFix.

The WebUI has some upper use limits that depend on many factors, such as the number of endpoints, the workload, the time of day, the server location, and the number of concurrent users.

Concurrent users are defined as highly active users who perform multiple actions per minute on the WebUI.

According to the BigFix Capacity Planning Guide, both the Windows and Linux WebUI instances support 36 concurrent users on a 250k deployment base. This is the recommended scalability limit for the WebUI server on BigFix v10.x.

The WebUI also requires additional hardware resources, such as CPU, memory, and storage, to power the WebUI. These resources are in addition to the BigFix root server requirements and depend on the number of concurrent users.

The WebUI also implements a database cache for several counters to improve the WebUI response times. The cache has a default refresh interval of 10 minutes. References:
