"implement a proxy server for apache" it was just a way of speaking. Allow me to reformulate : one or more proxy's like frontend balanced from dns or other whay. My questions still remainWhy would you start out with implementing a single point of failure?

The idea is to act like a firewall, proxy , load balancer and cache. It must serve around 2000 sites. The backend servers I don't know for now how many will be, but I am prepare to start with 2 or 3 and in case of heavy load , increase this number. My question is what hardware do you recommend for proxy. do I need fast cpu's or lots of core's. In terms of ram the things are clear : apache need ram. Do you recommend scsi or sata disks etc ? If someone have experience or suggestions please give me a sign.
