There are two options: - Use sticky session. In this scenario you don't need session sharing to do load balancing, but it would make the system more fail safe. (If one tomcat gets out of service, sticky sessions without session sharing loose all data from the current sessions on this server)
- Use no sticky sessions. In this case session sharing is a must. You can have loadbalancing without apache and still use one domainname. Just use an external loadbalancer. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jan Agermose [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 3:50 PM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Re: Tomcat 5 clustering > > > If you have apache in front of the different tomcat > instances, apache would route the same browsersession > to the same tomcatinstance on each request, or > not?
