(Optional) Add the CloudPoint extension
The CloudPoint extension serves the purpose of scaling the capacity of the CloudPoint host to service a large number of requests concurrently running on the CloudPoint server at its peak performance capacity. You can install one or more CloudPoint extensions on-premise or in cloud, depending on your requirements to run the jobs without putting the host under additional stress. An extension can increase the processing capacity of the CloudPoint host.
The CloudPoint extension can have the configuration same or higher as the CloudPoint host.
Supported CloudPoint extension environments:
VM based extension for on-premise
Cloud based extension with managed Kubernetes cluster
