[cfaussie] Re: Clustering - Standard or Enterprise
Hi, I use a heartbeat (software monitoring the hardware) for failover on linux and it works very well. When both machine are working there is load balancing done by distributing the application running on either server. If one fails then other consumes the extra required services to keep itself running till the dead server is restarted. This method allows me to use the standard edition and still provide high availability Cheers, Simon On 06/08/2007, M@ Bourke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Scott, if your simply after failover protection where a server dies for what ever reason and ya don't want down time and the server isn't getting an intensely massive loan then standard with a hardware (don't go a software) load balancer will do the trick and check if a server has carked it and direct the traffice to the other server/servers M@ -- Cheers Simon Haddon --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

[cfaussie] Re: Clustering - Standard or Enterprise
This sounds exactly like what I want to setup. One question, what about session sharing? Do session variables from server 1 get shared over to server 2? Or does your load balancer make sessions sticky ie a user's entire session is guaranteed to be only on one or the other server, in which case a server outage would cause loss of session for all users who are on that server?

[cfaussie] Re: Clustering - Standard or Enterprise
So what if you want both failover protection and enterprise application clustering with instances? Does your web server cluster and your cf cluster share the hardware load balancer?

[cfaussie] Re: Clustering - Standard or Enterprise
Hi Scott, It depends what sort of clustering you're doing. If you're clustering WEB servers (browsers make HTTP requests to the cluster) with a load balancer then you don't really need Enterprise for that - what Enterprise gives you is the ability to cluster APPLICATION servers (web server connectors forward CF processing requests to the cluster) because it exposes JRun's clustering features, either directly through the JRun administrator or the CF administration console in the stand alone version.

that went over my head a little... this whole subject (the choice) might be a good topic for a CFUG presentation, even a short 30-40 minute one via Breeze.
