You can apply load balancing to connections between BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) and Unwired Servers in a cluster.
When you deploy an Unwired Platform system to support BlackBerry device users, BES treats the Unwired Server as a back-end enterprise application. Connections from BES are treated as client connections by Unwired Server.
To implement client load balancing on connections between BES and Unwired Servers in a cluster, you can deploy either a Relay Server, or a load balancer appliance.
Note that the load-balancing mechanism between BES and Unwired Server is deployed on the internal LAN.
When you deploy an Unwired Platform system to support both BlackBerry device users, and users of other device types, you can apply load balancing to both BES connections and other client connections.
