We are using clustering to share configuration settings in environments that do 
load balancing across multiple proxies.  Administrators that have large 
deployments would need to configure every proxy manually.

Can you talk about how you are using the clustering feature?  Would parent 
proxying also work for your use case?

I’m sorry for sending the feedback on this proposal late. Can we please keep 
the clustering feature? We’ve been using it extensively here.

Thanks,

Thank you for all the feedback on this proposal.  Removing clustering support 
will be done in 7.0.0.

There are a few features we are looking to remove in the ATS 7.0.0 release.  If 
you are using these features and require them, please respond to this email.  
We also need to have people that are willing to invest time and fix some of the 
bugs for these features.   Your feedback is very important!

There are a number of bugs filed against clustering.  There are alternatives to 
using clustering, such as parent selection and the CARP plugin that Yahoo is 
open sourcing.  If we are going to keep clustering supporting we would need 
someone that is willing to work on the bugs.

The proposal is to remove the configurations options for clustering and remove 
the code for it.

I've seen a few people asking about clustering recently, so it seems like there 
is interest. But it *really* needs a code owner to make it live. Count me as a 
+0.


A serious issue with the lack of developer support is that other areas of the 
code suffers. Meaning, we have a hard time making progress with other areas 
(like metrics, or configurations), because we don’t have anyone who’s testing 
and maintaining the clustering feature.

This is a tough one though, the general feature is useful, but we’re seriously 
crippling ourselves with an unsupported legacy system.

+0 from me as well.

— Leif
