                                • Distributed: You can run ejabberd on a cluster of machines and all of them will serve the same Jabber domain(s). When you need more capacity you can simply add a new cheap node to your cluster. Accordingly, you do not need to buy an expensive high-end machine to support tens of thousands concurrent users.

This means that if one of the nodes crashes, the others will continue working without disruption. In addition, nodes also can be added or replaced “on the fly”.
