Hello list,
I am working on an evaluation of Lenya and I was wondering about
common
strategies for scaling to high traffic volumes. I noticed some posts
recommending the use of reverse proxies and I saw this article:
http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon-data/attachments/GT2006Notes/
attachments/10-caching.pdf
Does anyone know what high traffic sites like NZZ and Wired do?
Do they
deploy static HTML to simple web servers?
That's one approach. If you don't need dynamic content, it is the best
practise. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to tell you any details about
the live sites you mentioned above, but the deployment is quite
straightforward. The most critical aspect is publishing the static
pages
(deleting old ones etc.)
Do they deploy the
publication to a cluster of read-only Lenya instances?
If you need dynamic content (personalization etc.), this is the most
common approach. A customer ran the live site on a load-balanced
cluster
of 8 machines (distributed across 2 buildings) with 2 Tomcats each.
The
content was shared via NFS.
If you use this scenario, make sure to fine-tune the caching
(http://lenya.apache.org/docs/2_0_x/tutorials/production.html).
