There's a heartbeat system you can use for HA. If you look at the docs for LVS you'll see info on it. > Also, I've come across "fastcgi" a lot in researching this and I'm having > trouble understanding exactly what it is. FastCGI is a protocol for sending web requests to a daemon. It is implemented by multiple web servers and the daemon can be in any language. There's plenty of perl support for FastCGI and apache supports it, as do nginx and varnish and many others. > The fastcgi website makes it sound like it's almost a mod_perl replacement > and another approach to executing perl code in a web environment Correct, it's an alternative to mod_perl. You can find discussions in the list archives about the tradeoffs. Basically, you can't use any of the apache API stuff, like filters or the auth system. - Perrin
