QLIK server machine need to VM or physical?

[anilmahanty]

Hi,

Please help me to understand about server deployment benefit between VM server and Physical/Dedicated server.

Which is better option for Production environment using 3/4 node cluster , WRT scalability, availability and performance.

What QLIK prefer for their tool best use.

Do i need to  prefer:

1. 3/4 dedicated Physical machines

2. 3/4 VMs

3. mix of both.. etc...

Note: Cloud installation no need to consider.

Both VM and Physical machine will be fine.

Deployment can be:

1. In permised (Physical/VMs)

2. Cloud Space using AWS/Azure Elastic

3. Hybrid(In Permised: Develop/Reload + Cloud: Consume+ Elastic: Consume)
