One to scale the structure, which still relies on all structures to operate and one mirroring the DNS for the same exact website. You can google "how to scale websites" to see how people are doing it, note that scaling a website out has nothing to do with the language (the same way you scale php/mysql you can scale asp/sql), you just need to study and figure out which parts of your system needs to be separated/scaled out (mysql, memcached, files, etc..). Here is a good thread I found with the above search term: http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/1280/what-should-i-do-to-scale-out-a-high-traffic-website Hope it help!
