 XenApp was designed and tested to support up to 1,000 servers in a single farm. This was mainly intended to meet the need to consolidate numerous servers and to centralize the administration and support into a single XenApp farm. In most organizations' environments, the proposition will work as intended; however, there are specific situations where a single farm design is not a suitable solution and a multiple farm design is more appropriate. In this article, the design considerations for selecting a multiple farm design will be presented.
