How Scalability Works in SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted
Cheryl Nomanson, SolarWinds staff technical trainer, provides a comprehensive overview of SolarWinds architecture and scaling options for self-hosted deployments. She explains the centralized deployment model starting with a single SolarWinds server that handles polling, web console, and database connections. The presentation covers key scaling indicators including polling thresholds that warn users at 85% capacity and alert at 100%. She demonstrates how to add up to 100 polling engines per server and additional web servers to handle more concurrent users.
