We are building a new web farm to replace our 7 year old system. The old system used ipvs/ldirectord/heartbeat to implement redundant load balancers. All web server nodes were physical boxes.
The proposed new system will utilize approximately 24 virtual machines as web servers. Load balancing and redundancy will be done via ClusterIP rather than an explicit load balancer. We're looking at potentially 50 services running on 24 nodes. Pacemaker seemed like it would accommodate such a setup, however, from my research I am worried that perhaps it will not scale up to such a level.
Does anyone have any experience or feedback on this proposed approach to a web farm? Should I consider another approach?
Thanks for any info. - Rob Parsons _______________________________________________ Pacemaker mailing list: Pacemaker@oss.clusterlabs.org http://oss.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/pacemaker Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf Bugs: http://bugs.clusterlabs.org
