We're buying a hardware solution called the BigIP (http://www.bigip.com).
It's a load balancing/failover solution with firewall capabilities. It's
spendy at 40K, but does exactly what we need.
We'll be using the Win2k file replication.

Subject: CF Clustering
Does anyone have a link or pointer to information regarding how to
cluster CF web servers? We're looking to upgrade our web and database
servers and I'd like to hear about the various approaches taken to
clustering CF web servers.
Ideally, I'd like to achieve load-balancing and failover via redundancy.
For our purposes the load-balancing doesn't have to be perfect, but the
failover must be automatic and transparent. I'm assuming we'd run
several redundant web/CF servers connected to a common MS SQL server.
For the time being, I don't think we'd run a common fileserver for the
web site templates or other static content. Files would need to be
replicated on all servers.
With this configuration, I was wondering about things like the best way
to (1) achieve the load balancing (hardware and/or software needs?),
considering that CF sessions need to be maintained (2) a good means of
replicating content accross servers (3) other considerations?
Thanks for any input,
Jim
