Hi, The horizontal scalability is currently under development, this will be the point of our major next release we are working hard on it, but for now there is no way to make two or more APE server communicate and share informations on users/channels etc. The only way to use two different servers is to have an application where your users do not publish data but only listen to. I mean, if you have for example an application that displays a flow of data, they you just have to load balance your users to different APE Servers to simulate horizontal scalability. OTOH whenever you need to share user properties or make them communicate, for now it's not possible.
The MySQL connector is built-in APE for now, but the community can create a connector to any other database support. You just need to implement it in a async way.
