You can have load balancers in front of TPS instances. Two things I'd like
to call to your attention:
1. Between ESC and TPS, HTTP chunked encoding is used, so your load
balancer needs to support that.
2. The phone home url on the ESC needs to point to the load balancer.
The load balancers are (usually) transparent, so I'd still point them to
tps.corp.example.com, and the load balancer would deal with the connection
consistency, right? Let me know if I'm not thinking about this right.
