    Idea / RFE Review. Apologies for the length of time this RFE has been held in Uncommitted Candidate / Future Consideration status. With the Cloud Pak for Integration dashboard providing visualisations for ACE integration servers running in OpenShift, and also the ACE product's standalone dashboard component (which amlgamates views of integration nodes and independent integration servers) we feel that there is no current need for a formalised concept for a federated "MB cluster" for the product. The IIB/ACE switch component, and the IBM Satellite capabilities will continue to receive investment for helping control distributed architectures which use the ACE software, but we don't feel the need to carry forward this suggestion for a formalised cluster concept for the product.

    Since originally raised, the topology of IIB has moved on considerably. With the advent of cloud architectures, and the Callable flows feature which was added in IIBv10.0.0.4 it is now possible to link together nodes in manners which have not previously been possible. That said, we have not (yet) introduced a concept equivalent to a "cluster" of IIB nodes to the product, so for the moment the RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
