Hi, I'm just wondering if an Nginx load balancer is required for a x2 role LAMP Farm? (As it would be using x2 App instances). I would expect so but the Wiki documentation says no. However as I understand it wouldn't the DNS be better pointed at the Nginx LB rather than the LAMP (app) 'role'? I'm only thinking so as if not how would (web/app) traffic be distributed evenly between the x2 LAMP instances? Or have I misunderstood things? http://wiki.scalr.com/display/docs/Mixed+images+-+LAMP Any advice appreciated. Richard. -- --
