The Cluster Settings section lists out the properties of the cluster that were specified during cluster creation. Under this section, you will be able to manage the general and advanced configuration settings of the cluster which control the ingress (inbound) and egress (outbound) traffic.
Advanced cluster features manage some of the unique capabilities that apply to SQL caching, load distribution, health monitoring, and more. Each cluster is unique in its ability to handle traffic and can be defined independently to associate with business logic unique to applications, business units, or even customers.
This article takes a look at all the configurations that can be applied to an individual cluster.
Click on the Cluster Settings button under the Status column of the cluster to manage the various settings and configuration options specific to the cluster including:
