Re: Guidance on Fail Over for Load Balancers

You could set up two HTTPD servers with a shared IP address (using VRRP with keepalived).
In that case, I highly recommend using a configuration management tool (for example, puppet or chef) to make sure both systems have the same settings.

If the two load balancers need to share session information (for example, for visitor pinning) then it gets a bit more complicated.

We are going to use the Apache HTTP Server as a load balancer for a cluster of Tomcat servers.

We do not want the load balancer to be a single point of failure.

Is it possible to cluster or set up fail over for the load balancers?  Any guidance would be appreciated.

There are of course expensive corporate solutions available.  We would like to stay with Apache if we can.

Kind regards,

Mike
