100k simultaneous connections ??? Well, that's a lot. Depending on the request and hardware, you could run 1-200 RPS on one tomcat - but you would need a pretty large farm to load balance 100.000. I would use few hardware load balancers, and several apache boxes in front of the farm. Hopefully not all of the requests will be for dynamic content - so you may be able to handle it. But I've never seen 100.000 concurent users ( well, google probably has more - and is certainly not impossible - but it'll take some work ) Costin > > Regards, > > Huy Tran. > > Mathias Herberts wrote: > > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > > > >>On Tue, 25 Jun 2002, GOMEZ Henri wrote: > >> > >> > >> > >>>>>Pier could you detail what should be a Tomcat HA, and how > >>>>>it could fit in TC 5.0 proposal ? > >>>>> > >>>>> > >>>>As far as I can remember it was voted -1... > >>>> > >>>> > >>>What about TC 5.0 with HA capability ? > >>> > >>> > >>TC5.0 will have a 'higher availability' then 4.1 which is better > >>than 4.0.
