I have the hardware chosen for the webservers, app servers, and db servers, but need some adv i ce on the network sw i tch in between: colocation port -> firewa l l(load balancer) -> 2+ web servers (app servers) -> gigabit sw i tch -> DB server(possib l y cluster for future expansion) the quest i on is that I am just starting out, i wonder which rackmount g i gabit sw i tch to select for the private LAN between the app server -> DB servers. Do I need managed for that? Cisco switches are the best, but they are the most expensive...I am looking at poss i bly using Dell/Netgear gigab i t switches. Thanks for any input

Introduction: TGL delivers Virtual Private Datacenters and virtual private servers from grids of commodity servers. Each TGL grid consists of a pool of HP servers connected with a Gigabit backbone network and running 3Tera's AppLogic grid operating system. With a Virtual Private Datacenter, you get complete control of your own private grid. Using our visual interface, you set up and assemble disposable virtual infrastructure, including firewalls, load balancers, web servers, database servers, NAS boxes, etc. visually, by pointing and clicking. You can build advanced clusters, deploy large and small applications, and save them as templates that can be provisioned in minutes. You can even build your own virtual servers and appliances.

Introduction: Hi we are looking at sharding our existing Java/Oracle based application. We are looking to make the app servers able to process requests for multiple (any?) shard. The concern that has come up is the amount of memory that would be consumed by having so many connection pools on one app server. Additionally there is concern about having so many physical connections to the database server coming from all the various app servers that may talk to that particular shard. I was wondering if anyone else has dealt with this issue and how you resolved it? Thanks, Scott

5 0.58077818 620 high scalability-2009-06-05-SSL RPC API Scalability
Introduction: Hi all! So nice to start discussing cool things in this even cooler forum :) I am having a problem .. which i believe is already solved but i would love someone confirming actual experience with the same topic. We are building a client / server architecture, consisting of a web server part and many clients. Transport will be provided as either XML-RPC / SOAP / JSON or all at once. All of the communication has to be encrypted and passed within SSL3. We expect a high load when the application starts (> 2000 concurrent requests). Combine this with xml parsing for the rpc api, things really look ugly :) So it's a big mess :) It will not be that much database bound behind the api - mostly files will be transferred from the server to the clients and simple api for control. So it's pretty much a matter of 'what-to-do-with-ssl'. I was thinking of hardware - NetApp or a similar application accelerator. Can anyone give examples of a hardware piece that combines: Load balancer / SSL acce

1 0.82068288 1601 high scalability-2014-02-25-Peter Norvig's 9 Master Steps to Improving a Program
Introduction: Inspired by a xkcd comic , Peter Norvig , Director of Research at Google and all around interesting and nice guy, has created an above par code kata involving a regex program that demonstrates the core inner loop of many successful systems profiled on HighScalability. The original code is at xkcd 1313: Regex Golf , which comes up with an algorithm to find a short regex that matches the winners and not the losers from two arbitrary lists. The Python code is readable, the process is TDDish, and the problem, which sounds simple, but soon explodes into regex weirdness, as does most regex code. If you find regular expressions confusing you'll definitely benefit from Peter's deliberate strategy for finding a regex. The post demonstrating the iterated improvement of the program is at xkcd 1313: Regex Golf (Part 2: Infinite Problems) . As with most first solutions it wasn't optimal. To improve the program Peter recommends the following steps: Profiling : Figure out wher

Introduction: Google made a right move by adding web-speed to the search engine ranking. With this change site latency does't just impact the user experience but it will determine where you will be placed in google search results. This move could be a real game changer as it bring site latency and scalability to the front stage. Sites will not only compete on content but on thier performance. It is now clear that site performance have much more direct impact on our business (as appose to indirect impact resulted in user expereince) then ever before. In this post i try to provide some architecture guide line on how to control and improve site latency under scale based on a discussion with a leading eCommerce site the Netherland. See detailed story here

5 0.77318978 115 high scalability-2007-10-07-Using ThreadLocal to pass context information around in web applications
Introduction: Hi, In java web servers, each http request is handled by a thread in thread pool. So for a Servlet handling the request, a thread is assigned. It is tempting (and very convinient) to keep context information in the threadlocal variable. I recently had a requirement where we need to assign logged in user id and timestamp to request sent to web services. Because we already had the code in place, it was extremely difficult to change the method signatures to pass user id everywhere. The solution I thought is class ReferenceIdGenerator { public static setReferenceId(String login) { threadLocal.set(login + System.currentMillis()); } public static String getReferenceId() { return threadLocal.get(); } private static ThreadLocal threadLocal = new ThreadLocal(); } class MySevlet { void service(.....) { HttpSession session = request.getSession(false); String userId = session.get("userId"); ReferenceIdGenerator.setRefernceId(userId
