• Architecture how to install several programs in farm

  I am beginning in a project which is a total disaster. The company has done a lot of things that I don't like so much, but I am an analyst-programmer, so I have not voice for changing anything. One issue is that all the modules of the different programs are in all the machines of the farm (>100 servers). So the load is balanced between all of them.
