Several years ago I had the experience of using the commercial product Central 
Dispatch from Resonate (sucked up by Sun I believe).

http://www.resonate.com/prod_centr_disp.html

It was an end to end fail-over and load balancing solution, and at the time it 
ran on Linux.  I believe that they removed support for Linux circa 2000, 2001.  
It was a really bang-on product though.
