What is an Enterprise SCpbCS deployment?

The Enterprise deployment builds on top of the Professional+ deployment by horizontally scaling out all of the services. This deployment is the base for all sites with heavy load requirements. The load-balanced CM servers are used more for redundancy than load, and help ensure that the CM environment will always be available for content authors. Processing servers work by reading from an xDB queue of unprocessed data. Additional processing servers means a faster turnaround with the queue.

Be aware that the following image shows two servers in each grouping, but you can scale outwards with more servers as your demand increases.

Having multiple BizTalk servers introduces redundancy, which ensures that important transactions, such as the transportation of new orders, never halts. Additional BizTalk servers also means that some servers can focus on frequent high processing tasks, and leave other servers for infrequent, low-processing tasks such as catalog imports.
