    Hello,

    First I would like to state this is a software installation ( non appliance )

    We are installing API Gateway in a cluster environment.

    According to the guides, it seems we are limited to only 2 Mysql instances regardless the number of API nodes we might implement in the environment.

    If this is correct, it seems the best approach would be to move the mysql´s to separated and dedicated servers ( running outside API servers ) so that all API nodes access the remote mysql server.

    Another questions came up, is it possible to have those 2 mysql servers on remote servers ? ( outside API gateway installation ) .

    Api gateway support remote mysql servers. For more details, please refer to Configure the Gateway Application (Software) - CA API Gateway - 9.2 - CA Technologies Documentation 

    The network latency could be a concern.
