Redundant web servers
Greetings!I'm interested in hearing about how others handle redundant web services. In some installations I've seen:
* multiple web servers have /home mounted on a Netapp or NFS server
or..
* multiple web servers attached to the same SCSI array
etc.
Just using rsync doesn't seem like a good plan because than each web server node would have to have identical storage capacity.
User directories live in /home, along with their public_html stuff. If a user hits ftp.domain.com, it won't matter which of the web server nodes that they hit because the actual content will be served up by the same box anyway.
Hopefully this makes some sense. I haven't had a lot of coffee today... and I'm just trying to come up with a good way to add more web servers to the farm.
Thanks!
