I'm trying to decide between LVS and nginx for a load balancing solution for a site with predicted high traffic - (say 10K HTTP requests per second). I'm familiar with nginx as a reverse proxy / image server. I have no familiarity with LVS. Do you think LVS has key advantages missing in nginx? If so, I would play with it to see how it fits our needs.
[Is it correct that LVS provides failover semantics as well? Because as far as I can tell, nginx doesn't, to get around this, we use DNS based mechanism so we have more than one nginx server registered, but of course this is less than ideal] thanks much, thushara _______________________________________________ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - [email protected] Send requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
