Is your "utility" tied to Tomcat or can it run in any other servlet container also? If it is written against the servlet API in general, you could even load balance a heterogeneous servlet container cluster! That would be interesting to see!

This is a bit different, in two ways: - It's pure tomcat (or rather, pure servlet container, since there's nothing tomcat-specific), without Apache or Balance or another load-balancer in front. Satisfied by pure java cravings ;) - It's rule-based load balancing, rather than round-robin offered by Balance or the (relatively) simple mod-rewrite type redirection you can do with apache. I have rules that consult Beans which in turn cache DB data, for example, in order to make redirection decisions. There are other interesting options ;) Yoav Shapira This e-mail, including any attachments, is a confidential business communication, and may contain information that is confidential, proprietary and/or privileged.
