I am trying to figure out the best way to configure a multi-server setup for Tomcat and MySQL. Someone gave me the a list of configuration suggestions (see link below). My question is is configuration 3 (see link below) a good way to go when scaling up from our current configuration (config. 0)? If not, which one would be the best. I know this is pretty generalize but I a just looking for a standard 2-4 server configuration that is used the most and that is well balance.
