I was able to get things working and am now fairly confident that I have enough power on my front end to completely melt my database. I think the real benefits will be failover and the ability to stage releases.
Btw, as far as I can tell, apache proxy_balancer is the only open source choice for load balancing with sticky sessions. Is anyone aware of other options? I would much rather be using nginx. I'm aware that there's a third party module for session stickyness, but not sure if it's at a usable stage: http://code.google.com/p/nginx-upstream-jvm-route/ I'm actually not sure what the problem was with the config below, though the duplicate "ProxyPass / balancer://cluster/" was probably not helping - Jon On Sep 16, 7:05 pm, jon <jonhoff...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Is anyone running lift behind apache with proxy_balancer?
