SuiteCloud Plus Settings

If you are using SuiteCloud features, the purchase of a SuiteCloud Plus license can enhance NetSuite performance. A SuiteCloud Plus license increases an account’s throughput by permitting more concurrency for web services, scheduled processes, and file imports. By adding SuiteCloud Plus licenses, customers can operate, in parallel, more web services integrations, batch processes and file imports.

The SuiteCloud Plus license can enhance scalability by:

• Increasing the governance limit for concurrent SOAP, REST and RESTlet web service requests.

• Increasing the number of queues available for scheduled scripts, or the number of processors available for scheduled scripts and map/reduce scripts.

• Increasing the number of queues and threads available for CSV import jobs.

• Increasing the number of REST Async Processors available for asynchronous request processing of REST web services.

The following tables summarize the parameters of the SuiteCloud Plus license for each NetSuite service tier: Standard, Premium, Enterprise, and Ultimate.

The number of SuiteCloud plus licenses required for an account will depend on multiple factors. You need to consider integration concurrency needs during peak transaction periods, the number of applications to integrate with, and the overall model of the integration, to manage governance limits. When leveraging scheduled processors or map/reduce jobs, the number of transactions and time taken to process them will help determine the optimal number of queues/processors required. When leveraging the CSV import utility, the number of files that need to be imported in parallel, and time it takes to process them will help determine optimal number of queues/threads.

Increasing the integration concurrency limit permits an increase in parallel integration operations at any given time. This increases integration transaction throughput.

Map/reduce and scheduled script processors help with batch processing of large volumes of transactions or executing scheduled business processes. Increased processor count increases parallel processing which increases transactional throughput and reduces processing times.

CSV import queues are available to load large volumes of transactions into NetSuite using the Import Assistant. These imports can be multi-threaded to reduce the import time. Increasing the CSV queues and threads per queue helps to import more files in a shorter period of time.

Please note the following:

• SuiteCloud Plus licensing may be offered in conjunction with service tiers. For more information about service tier offerings, see NetSuite Service Tiers. To check how many SuiteCloud Plus licenses you currently have, see Service Tier Dashboard.

• The account governance limit for concurrent requests is based on the service tier as well as the number of SuiteCloud Plus licenses purchased. Different service tiers have different base limits.

• The SuiteCloud Processors feature is used to process map/reduce scripts and scheduled scripts. A scheduler automatically determines the order in which jobs process. The scheduler uses algorithms that are based on user-defined priority levels, submission times, and user-defined preferences. The result is increased throughput, reduced wait times, and the elimination of most bottlenecks. For more information about this feature, see SuiteCloud Processors.

• The REST Async Processors feature is used to process asynchronous requests in REST web services. For more information, see REST Web Services Request Processing.
