You sound jaded. :) I am setting up my clusters to use session replication because sticky sessions wreak havoc on my load balancing distribution. We have a heavily-used internal site with a very small number of unique users (around 300 right now) and very long average session lengths (8 hour working day). Somehow everyone always gets stuck on one server and I am tired of that.
Besides, even if session replication is only good in your eyes for failover, shouldn't it at least work when it fails over??? ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Sean Corfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 12:49 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Scorpio On 5/9/07, Brad Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Forta was at the Kansas City user group last night and I would just like > to say I am so happy to hear that CFCs (and XML documents) will > serialize properly in CF 8 and replicate between shared sessions! Why are so many people so excited about this? Session replication is not needed on the vast majority of sites - it just causes network chatter and it still has latency so if a session does failover due a server going down, you might still get a request into a new server instance before the session data is available. How many people are actually using replication and what is your justification for it? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 The most significant release in over 10 years.
