The Servoy Application Server is a highly scalable, cross platform application server.

Scalability
Servoy scales from a single user on a low power machine to all the way up to tens of thousands of concurrent users limited only by the hardware used and the speed of the backend database. Servoy Server can run on desktop machines all the way up to high-end mainframe servers on any platform that supports Java 1.5 or higher. Servoy can scale as you grow without having to re-write a single line of code. Using Servoy Cluster and Load Balancing multiple Servoy Application Servers can be combined into 1 virtual Servoy Application Server, extending the scalability of the Servoy deployment platform even further.

Cross platform
The Servoy Application Server can be operated on any platform that supports Java Standard Edition Runtime Environment version 5 or higher. Servoy supports all major operating systems including:

  • Microsoft Windows
  • Mac OS X
  • Solaris
  • FreeBSD
  • Red Hat Linux
  • Novel Suse Linux
  • other Linux flavors

Although not required as Servoy already optimizes all traffic between the Servoy Application Server and the Servoy Clients, Servoy also fully supports "virtual" operating systems such as Terminal Services, Citrix and VMware.

Switching operating system

Regardless on which platform the Servoy Application Server is running, Servoy Clients can be started against the Servoy Application Server from any platform
