Quick Start

36 FileMaker Server Getting Started Guide
Three-machine deployment
You deploy the web server and Web Server Module on one worker machine, deploy the Web Publishing Engine on
a second worker machine, and deploy the Database Server on a third (master machine). The web server and Web
Server Module are on a machine that serves as the request gateway, and you can optionally use a firewall to separate
them from the components on the other two machines.
Benefits: In general, this deployment performs slightly slower than the
two-machine deployment for web publishing because of the overhead to
communicate with the separate web server machine. However, the overhead is
generally minimal and constant. In a very high-load environment, this deployment
outperforms the two-machine deployment because the web server is offloaded.
