Different limiting criteria for cell size are explored and the considerations for each criteria is documented. The goal is to provide the most accurate information about WebSphere Application Server behaviour and scaling constraints so that you can develop the plans for your large topology based on the functional and operational priorities that are the most relevant to your organization.
