Hi,
I am trying to design a connection manager for our
application, which is a interface to the netscape
directory server. Can some one help me by telling how
can i maintain connections to different directory
servers. Say i have two masters and 4 consumers to get
the data from. What is the best way to balance the
load among all these servers, with a good performance.
A hardware load balancer, like a Foundry switch, works pretty well for
just simple load balancing.
I would like to use a different pool for write
operations, connecting to master and different pool
connecting to the consumers. But how will i switch
between the servers.
AFAIK, there is no product which will do this for you automatically.
You will have to write your application code such that you direct write
requests to the masters (and do the load balancing/fail over yourself),
and direct search requests to the consumers.
Thanks,
Sai.
