Hi List,
My team is creating a new tomcat hosting environment in our
organization. And we are looking for some suggestion & possible
gotchas here. We plan to keep it as simple as possible & easy to
maintain. At the same time it should be flexible as it will support
multiple applications, multiple JVMs, each app very different from
each other.
The web apps will be hosted for intranet only. The environment is on
RHEL v5, Apache v2.2, Tomcat v6, Sun JDK 1.6 & 1.5.
We are planning to host multiple instances of Tomcat JVMs, with one
JVM per app. Each JVM with different CATALINA_BASE and different
ports.
E.g.
CATALINA_BASE=/data/apps/server1
CATALINA_BASE=/data/apps/server2
CATALINA_BASE=/data/apps/server3
CATALINA_HOME=/data/installs/apache-tomcat-6.0.18
We are planning to use default appbase and use webapps as directory
where users will put in their war files. The data source information
should be in the war file itself. And most of the jar's, extra
configuration should be built into the war file. The main criteria
being that we would like to keep the installation as clean as
possible.
The production environment is going to have 4 app servers & 4 web
servers. We do not plan to use clustering service, but will load
balance it via Apache's mod_proxy & F5 Big IP loadbalancer
Pls advise, how will you architect this.
