vCenter Orchestrator Appliance Scaling Limitations?

Hi There

So the publicly available material I can find suggest that the orchestrator appliance is suitable to small/medium organizations. Does anyone have information as to the tipping points beyond which one would need to start using the full installer instead of the appliance version of vCO?

Thanks in advance

Ken

There is no difference between the orchestrator appliance (linux) and the full installed version (windows) in terms of functionality or scalability. The idea is the default setup of the appliance is suitable for small and medium deployments. For bigger deployments, vCO has to be in clustering node with a dedicated database node and more than one vCO nodes (working in cluster).
