I'm not sure if I've asked this before but can Apache run on a cluster
network? I've searched their site and don't really see any mention of it or
how to configure it, does this mean it's not cluster aware?

I'm trying to design/build a redundant web site which contains 3 stages (non
clustered version) as below...

Link--+--Firewall1---Webserver1--+----+----Database1
      |                          |    +----Database2
      +--Firewall2---Webserver2--+    +----Database3
                                      +----Database4

should the firewall,webserver or any of the database servers fail, the
other(s) would take over.

Though, my clients software will be doing region checking via the URL path
(sydney,perth,etc) and will direct the traffic/webrequests to the
appropriate Database server which handles that region....
If a cluster was used I don't think that would then be needed..

any ideas/help?

thanks,
