Which components are essential when setting up Avaya Aura® Media Server for scalability? (Choose two)

The correct answer is B. Load balancers C. Additional DSP resources. Scaling Avaya Aura® Media Server requires both distributing traffic and increasing raw media-processing capacity. Load balancers (B) are essential because they distribute incoming media sessions across multiple AMS instances, preventing any single node from becoming a bottleneck

Explanation

Scaling Avaya Aura® Media Server requires both distributing traffic and increasing raw media-processing capacity. Load balancers (B) are essential because they distribute incoming media sessions across multiple AMS instances, preventing any single node from becoming a bottleneck as call volume grows. Additional DSP resources (C) are equally critical because DSPs handle the actual media work - codec transcoding, mixing, and tone processing - and more concurrent sessions demand proportionally more processing capacity.

Elasticsearch integration (A) is a logging and analytics tool used for searching log data; it has no role in scaling media throughput or session capacity. Redundant network interfaces (D) address high availability and failover (fault tolerance), not scalability - they prevent downtime but don't increase how many sessions the server can handle.

Memory tip: Think "Scale = Spread + Strengthen" - Load balancers spread the load across nodes, and DSP resources strengthen each node's processing muscle. Redundancy is about staying up, not growing up.
