Daniel, can you give the idea to do a parallel deployment approach? What tools I need ? From: Daniel Savard Sent: Tuesday, March 8, 2016 7:20 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Advice on Cluster in one machine On the zero downtime deployments side, I would prefer a parallel deployment approach. You can deploy a new version within the same instance and have zero downtime as well without building a cluster.

Having two JVMs also means that you can upgrade Tomcat and/or the JVM without bringing down the service. Of course, on a single machine, you would still need to bring down the service for package updates, etc. Then of course, there's VMs... it's possible to go completely crazy unless you take a step back and decide what your uptime requirements truly are. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlbfK3IACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PACqQCgrf9MsJ2UVfqAcYRur0ilpccb +JAAnjThwm8Y5yeAvpcSEKtlvyIClwid =AwVQ -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

On the zero downtime deployments side, I would prefer a parallel deployment approach. You can deploy a new version within the same instance and have zero downtime as well without building a cluster.

I'm not sure how well websockets work through httpd right now. I'm certainly no expert on websocket, so someone else will have to give you better information. Note that the database is also not relevant. But in general, yes, you can use httpd as a reverse proxy for multiple Tomcats. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlbfA74ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDVUQCgw6fUafLXMoCKsEGW5ucUxgjx gfEAoKJHYBWtn7MAdhGYlllsgcSZeuah =YX3V -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Performance-wise, your friend is right: a two-node cluster on one machine is going to use more resources than a single node on that machin e. However, running two cluster nodes on a single server isn't a completely stupid idea. If you want to have zero-downtime deployments, you can take one node down, upgrade it, then switch. So there's value there. As for fault-tolerance, the single point of failure is the whole machine: if that server isn't available, no services are available . That's why people usually have a hardware load balancer (fairly simple, fairly reliable) and several web/app servers, just in case one of them fails.

If you *really* want to test which of the configurations provides the best results with your particular caseload, then you will have a lot of work ahead of you to build a representative workload and an appropriate test/measurement framework. Non-authoritative advice : Intuitively, just the fact of having a front-end and a cluster configuration all on the same server, will already introduce a significant overhead which a simpler configuration would not have. Intuitively thus, I would recommend to try the simplest configuration first, and only if you see problems, then measure what the problem is, and come back for help here. No need to over-complicate your setup and maintenance before then. Unless you need it also for something else, forget the httpd front-end and the clustered Tomcats, and have a single Tomcat act directly as the webserver/websocket server. OK, thks. I did this configuration because I will use a lot of users to my app . Someboyd told me that for this case is much better to use Apache like proxy to redirect request to Tomcat besides dont use port 8080 . I have used Tomcat as webapp before always using 8080 port but now I wanted dont use the port 8080 just use myserver.com/app1 or use subdomains for app. I take your advice. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
