Hi there,
I'm currently involved in a Project that requires high-avaiability and
load-balancing for web servers and database servers.
In order to have a load-balancing webserver, I use LVS and I use dns round
robin. Basically I have the hostname with 2 distinct IP, so I have some
load-balancing right from the start, using DNS.
Then I have 2 machines (low-end) , that run LVS, and this machines are
high-avaiable , using heart-beat.
As to storage , I have the machines using an iscsi share , shared by a
machine running with a raid 1+0.
Regarding the database servers, i use Oracle so perhaps this is off-topic
for you :)
Best wishes,
Bruno Sousa

Assunto: [CentOS] Load Balancing
Hi,
We are starting a new project, and are trying to decide the best way to
proceed. We want to setup a LAMP configuration using Centos, something
we have been doing in the past with great success.
The question is load balancing. We antisipate the potential for the
system to receive 500,000 requests/ day with in the next year. We want
to plan for that extra load now as we start the project. What would you
suggest for setups for multiple servers for redundancy and load balancing?
I have setup MySQL replication and that works fine but what about the
rest of the system. I know it is quite simple to setup with windows
2003 server.
Would a cluster be the way to go? Ideally we would like 2-? severs
setup that are all identical and sharing the load as need be, and if one
fails users would notice nothing.
I have also thought of just looking for a hosting company that offers
load balancing servers and not worry about it but we like to have control.
Thanks for any suggestions
Mace
