# Scaling Luden Server

**Luden** is designed to be scalable at heart. Since in most production cases Luden is used for real-time mission-critical data collection and handles a pretty heavy load (millions of events per minute), it requires a distributed setup. Luden consists of 3 services: 

* Luden Server — the core of the platform
* Luden Configurator — an optional UI for configuring Luden and 
* Redis serves as the coordination, storage, and caching layer.
