I have a conceptual question about load balancing Tomcat4.0.4 instances.
I'm building a *very* high traffic site.  Traditionally this company handles
high loads with layering like this:

Non-sticky load balancer
Several NES instances
Many WebLogic instances

This works because WebLogic session ids encode the IP of the WL instance,
enabling any NES to always forward to the correct WL.

Do mod_jk and Tomcat 4.0.4 work the same way?

Does this work:

Non-sticky load balancer
Several Apache/mod_jk instances
Many Tomcat 4.0.4 instances

?

As a secondary question, is mod_jk the best way to load-balance Tomcat 4.0.4
instances?  The Tomcat instances will most likely be running in Jboss 3.0.1.

Thanks,
Jeff Schnitzer
