Currently the MS IIS is used, but we need > the application to be scalable, and the standard replication feature > incorporated into IIS can't do the trick with the internal data. > The data is continuously updated by an application server (COM-objects) > in accordance with some business logic and user requests. > The application supports sessions, and within a single session > a user must be serviced at the same web-server, because the data > is partially stored on the web-server during the session. > > So the question arises: is it possible to utilize ICS for building > custom web-server with a scaling feature and how? Has anyone already > made such a thing with ICS? Actually, I think of something like > round robin architecture of web-servers around our main "data base", > so to speak because this is not actually a relational data base. > But I'm not familiar with this field of "distributed sockets", > so any directions on how to distrubute incoming user connections > between clustered ICS web-servers will be appreciated. Am I right > that this can be implemented as a http-proxy (reverse proxy?)? > Any other ideas? > > Best wishes, > Stanislav Korotky, > Russia, Moscow, GMT +3.00 > > -- > To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list > please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket > Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
