 This solution is appropriate for many teams that have a single server at their disposal. With automatic backup of the GitLab repositories, configuration, and the database, this can be an optimal solution if you don't have strict availability requirements.

-### Omnibus installation with multiple application servers
+### Multi-node installation (scaled out for availability)
 
 This solution is appropriate for teams that are starting to scale out when
 scaling up is no longer meeting their needs. In this configuration, additional application nodes will handle frontend traffic, with a load balancer in front to distribute traffic across those nodes. Meanwhile, each application node connects to a shared file server and PostgreSQL and Redis services on the back end.
