We use proxies, but instead of modifying the proxy config, we use a Rewrite rule of the form: RewriteMap maps txt:/etc/httpd.maps RewriteRule ^(.*) http://${maps:appserver}$1 [proxy] When we release, we edit the /etc/httpd.maps file to point to a different port or machine. appserver foo.com:9999 mod_rewrite rereads (or checks mtime of) the file on every request so the change takes effect immediately.
