I think the original question was around stateless load balancing, not clustering. Cross DC clustering is a headache, but HA web sites aren't exactly terchnical challenges these days.


He said he wanted 1 server in each data center, so that his website would be available even if 1 data center goes down. That's HA not load balancing. I disagree that it's not a challenge. Remote data centers means the likelihood of split brain goes up quite a lot, as compared to a set of servers connected via crossover ethernet or via serial cable.
