No, keep it to one worker.

4

is there a plan or timeline when it will support multiple worker nodes ?

5

Not really. The problem are event consumers, which are hard to scale out. Do you have issues with something?

one more question , is there any doc to help understand how primary node and worker nodes works ?

The release notes have a neat little diagram showing it in case you haven’t seen it: https://squidex.io/post/squidex-7.0-release-candidate-3-released

The key thing to know that I was initially unsure of is that the worker node is also an API node.

You could do that, but I do not recommend it.

The worker node handles all background processes:

  1. Timers (e.g. scheduled publishing)
  2. Rules
  3. Text Indexes
  4. History
  5. Usage data

So if the worker node is down for 10 minutes it is not a big deal. Therefore you do not need HA there, just a restart policy.
