ProGet Enterprise Replication and S3
-
If we have multiple ProGet Enterprise clusters, each with their own S3 bucket as the backing store, can we use S3 replication instead of ProGet replication? Or must all replication traffic go through ProGet?
-
Each instance of ProGet needs its own file storage (S3 bucket, disk, etc). You definitely do not want to use the same storage across instances - that'd cause a major issue.
Some users have been tempted to use a combination of Database Replication + Disk Replication with third-party "external" replication tools, and learned the hard way that it's an absolute disaster once deployed. So don't try that :)
Basically the "external" (non ProGet) replication is way too slow to handle the type of traffic ProGet receives, and the files/database replication cycles are never in sync.

Thanks Dean, that makes it clear for me.
