signalR web farm

I have successfully used signalR to create a simple chat application inside ASP.NET MVC3. Everything works great locally on my dev machine.

Will the application work the same way in a web farm environment with multiple web servers (going live for example)? How does signalR manage its Hubs across those servers?

Thanks.

Please see David Fowler's blog post about webfarm support in SignalR v0.5: http://weblogs.asp.net/davidfowler/archive/2012/05/02/signalr-0-5.aspx

In short, SignalR currently supports Redis and Windows Azure Service Bus as a way to communicate between multiple servers in a webfarm.
