mDuo13 7645140477 Re-levelization: move non-docs content, rename content→docs
For better URLs, the content folder has been renamed 'docs' and all
other files have been moved up a level. Also, non-docs images have been
moved to the static folder at the top level where they belong.

Many relative paths had to be fixed to make this work.

Run rippled servers in a cluster to share the load of cryptography between them.

Clustering

If you are running multiple rippled servers in a single datacenter, you can configure those servers into a cluster to maximize efficiency. Running your rippled servers in a cluster provides the following benefits:

  • Clustered rippled servers share the work of cryptography. If one server has verified the authenticity of a message, the other servers in the cluster trust it and do not re-verify.
  • Clustered servers share information about peers and API clients that are misbehaving or abusing the network. This makes it harder to attack all servers of the cluster at once.
  • Clustered servers always propagate transactions throughout the cluster, even if the transaction does not meet the current load-based transaction fee on some of them.

If you are running a validator as a private peer, Ripple recommends using a cluster of rippled servers as proxy servers.
