No you're right there'll always be a single point of failure unless
there is a truly redundant environment. But, minimizing the number of
links in a non-redundant chain minimizes the chance of one of those
links failing ;) So I'm trying to cut down on the number of things it
takes to have the s
2 mirror installations of apache httpd and dns round robin them. I
could be wrong, but at some point you will have single point of failure
-- either at apache httpd level or dns level.

Yeah, I've read the docs on mod_jk. It seems a self-defeating purpose to
set up Apache httpd for load balancing and fail over because it
introduces a single point of failure on the part of the Apache httpd.
That's why I originally asked if the only way to set up fail over was
via integration wi
Take a look at mod_jk, there are some great examples on apache's httpd
website.

From my experience, these are the questions that you should make sure
were asked first:
1. What is the effect on the user experience if the new server does
not have the session information?
2. How large a memory footprint does each session occupy?
3. How often do session variables
I'm not an expert, but you do not need Apache HTTPD server in order
to get Tomcat to cluster (although you can certainly use it if you
want). As far as tapestry, I don't think there is anything special you
need to do other than make sure your session is serializable.

I know this is not a Tomcat list but I'm just hoping somebody's had
experience in this area and could provide some quick guidance on the
issue. I'm trying to setup a cluster of tomcat servers in session
replication mode for failover purposes. Though it's pretty unclear from
the docs if this kin
