you could put a message queue between your udp and web servers. in this case you could scale them independently. as long as a delay between udp inbound and http outbound is acceptable, i'd go with that.
if it is ok that one udp-server and one webserver are bound together, then one could fork the other and comunicate other the built-in ipc channel, which is via unix socket. i guessthis solution would give you even faster ipc channel. but when you have to scale, then you scale both, which might be not the best thing Am Dienstag, 13.
