The “Local Node” and Appshare services are stateless. This means local nodes can scale horizontally by running multiple nodes behind a load balancer.

When the customer service (eg. JD Edwards AIS server) is stateful, it requires sticky sessions on the load balancer. These sticky sessions are usually maintained through http-only cookies. When the local node and customer service are on different domains, the cookies will work if they are used only for stickiness. When they are also used for authentication, this will not work. The Appshare PWA does not follow authentication challenges and is not allowed to set cookies on the customer service domain.

Domains of the services:

• Appshare PWA
  • https://appshare-lb.customer.local
• Appshare Services
  • https://appshare-lb.customer.local/share-proxy-api/ which the local node proxies to https://api.appshare.app
• The Customer Services
  • jde-ais-lb.customer.local
