VBO for users in different Geographies

Post by slanetw »

Hi,

We have just purchased 1000 licences of VBO and are planning the deployment of this to roll out to the firm.

We have a small subset of users (approx 20) based in Hong Kong on our Office 365 tenancy, but as far as I am aware their 365 is from Azure East Asia.

Would we be best to spin up a version of VBO in Azure EA and then install the licences on there for them to use as well as on a VM in either our Data Centre or our Azure West Europe, and then install the licence for the remaining users?

I guess the basic question is can we have 2 VBO servers using the same licence pool (a bit like the VUL for B&R) or does it all have to be the same server?

All the accounts are under the same 365 domain and tenancy.

Thanks in advance

Steve

Hi Steve,

You can if you want to. But I don't think it will be necessary. What I suggest is that you install the VBO controller at the location you prefer, and install 1 proxy over in East Asia. Create a specific job for those 20 and point that job to that proxy. You can then even let the data be in that location also if you create a repository specifically over there, to the proxy

Makes sense?
