Re: Apache as a Gateway

[Arnab Ganguly <aganguly01@xxxxxxxxx>]

We have the foundry switch which is being replaced by Netscaler now.So can we use Pound or LSV in this case ?

Mainly the Netscaler switch  is going to handle the http request which later by passed to different backend server (linux boxes).
Thanks in advance.

LVS and pound act in different ways, and on different levels of the TCP stack.

 

It all depends what you're trying to achieve as to which is most suitable for you.

In our environment we use a failed over  pair of hardware load balancers which balance traffic across a pair of squid caching servers which then load balance to a pair of pound servers. (see attachment)

 

We use pound to send certain urls and virtual hosts off to a series of backend java applications.

 

This is probably off topic now though …
