Background

Since version 8.16.0 (see CHANGELOG: Inter-Cluster Session Routing & Migration) it is possible to to move sessions between worker clusters using the CONTROL MOVE SESSION statement.

New Feature

This feature allows sessions to be distributed automatically across a number of clusters instead of having to do this manually using CONTROL MOVE SESSION. The clusters and scaling method, which is used to select a cluster on which to run a session, can be specified using JSON syntax.

Please see the documentation for details about the functionality and JSON syntax: Move Sessions Between Clusters.
