Introduction: A superb explanation by Theo Schlossnagle of how to deploy a high availability load balanced system using mod backhand and Wackamole . The idea is you don't need to buy expensive redundant hardware load balancers, you can make use of the hosts you already have to the same effect. The discussion of using peer-based HA solutions versus a single front-end HA device is well worth the read. Another interesting perspective in the document is to view load balancing as a resource allocation problem. There's also a nice discussion of the negative of effect of keep-alives on performance.

Introduction: What's the cost of downtime to your business? $100,000 per hour, $1,000,000 or more? The recent Volcanic ash that has grounded European flights is estimated to be costing the airlines $200M a day. In the IT world, High Availability (HA) architectures allow for disaster recovery as well as uninterrupted business continuity during system failure. This post focuses on a customer’s backend, comprised of a business application stack supported by a dozen Oracle databases. They wish to equip this infrastructure with HA features and ensure that outages do not cost business. How do we address the challenge of pricing the complete solution, with hardware, software, services and annual support? Read more on BigDataMatters.com

Introduction: Hey guys, There is a renewed push at my organization to deploy vmware...everywhere. I am rather excited as I know we have a lot of waste when it comes to resources. What has pricked my ears up however, is the notion of using this technology in our very busy public facing DMZ's. Today we get lots of spikes of traffic and we are coping very well. 40x HP blades, apache/php/perl/tomcat/ all in HA behind HA F5's and HA Checkpoint FW's. (20 servers in 2 datacentres). The idea is, we virtualise these machines, including the firewalls onto hosts vmware clusters that span the public interface to our internal networks. This is something that has gone against the #1 rule I have ever lived by while working on the inet. No airgaps from the unknown to the known! I am interested in feedback on this scenario. From a resource perspective, our resource requirements in the DMZ will be lowered over time due to business change and we still have a lot of head room in our capacity. Do you think t

2 0.77116942 109 high scalability-2007-10-03-Save on a Load Balancer By Using Client Side Load Balancing
Introduction: In Client Side Load Balancing for Web 2.0 Applications author Lei Zhu suggests a very interesting approach to load balancing: forget DNS round robbin, toss your expensive load balancer, and make your client do the load balancing for you. Your client maintains a list of possible servers and cycles through them. All the details are explained in the article, but it's an intriguing idea, especially for the budget conscious startup.
3 0.73635697 157 high scalability-2007-11-16-Product: lbpool - Load Balancing JDBC Pool
Introduction: From the website: The lbpool project provides a load balancing JDBC driver for use with DB connection pools. It wraps a normal JDBC driver providing reconnect semantics in the event of additional hardware availability, partial system failure, or uneven load distribution. It also evenly distributes all new connections among slave DB servers in a given pool. Each time connect() is called it will attempt to use the best server with the least system load. The biggest scalability issue with large applications that are mostly READ bound is the number of transactions per second that the disks in your cluster can handle. You can generally solve this in two ways. 1. Buy bigger and faster disks with expensive RAID controllers. 2. Buy CHEAP hardware on CHEAP disks but lots of machines. We prefer the cheap hardware approach and lbpool allows you to do this. Even if you *did* manage to use cheap hardware most load balancing hardware is expensive, requires a redundant balancer (if it

5 0.70048881 426 high scalability-2008-10-22-Server load balancing architectures, Part 1: Transport-level load balancing
Introduction: Server farms achieve high scalability and high availability through server load balancing, a technique that makes the server farm appear to clients as a single server. In this two-part article, Gregor Roth explores server load balancing architectures, with a focus on open source solutions. Part 1 covers server load balancing basics and discusses the pros and cons of transport-level server load balancing. The barrier to entry for many Internet companies is low. Anyone with a good idea can develop a small application, purchase a domain name, and set up a few PC-based servers to handle incoming traffic. The initial investment is small, so the start-up risk is minimal. But a successful low-cost infrastructure can become a serious problem quickly. A single server that handles all the incoming requests may not have the capacity to handle high traffic volumes once the business becomes popular. In such a situations companies often start to scale up: they upgrade the existing infrastruc

3 0.84502816 281 high scalability-2008-03-18-Database Design 101
Introduction: I am working on the design for my database and can't seem to come up with a firm schema. I am torn between normalizing the data and dealing with the overhead of joins and denormalizing it for easy sharding. The data is essentially music information per user: UserID, Artist, Album, Song. This lends itself nicely to be normalized and have separate User, Artist, Album and Song databases with a table full of INTs to tie them together. This will be in a mostly read based environment and with about 80% being searches of data by artist album or song. By the time I begin the query for artist, album or song I will already have a list of UserID's to limit the search by. The problem is that the tables can get unmanageably large pretty quickly and my plan was to shard off users once it got too big. Given this simple data relationship what are the pros and cons of normalizing the data vs denormalizing it? Should I go with 4 separate, normalized tables or one 4 column table? Perhaps it might

5 0.79320836 1035 high scalability-2011-05-05-Paper: A Study of Practical Deduplication
Introduction: With BigData comes BigStorage costs. One way to store less is simply not to store the same data twice . That's the radically simple and powerful notion behind data deduplication . If you are one of those who got a good laugh out of the idea of eliminating SQL queries as a rather obvious scalability strategy, you'll love this one, but it is a powerful feature and one I don't hear talked about outside the enterprise. A parallel idea in programming is the once-and-only-once principle of never duplicating code. Using deduplication technology, for some upfront CPU usage, which is a plentiful resource in many systems that are IO bound anyway, it's possible to reduce storage requirements by upto 20:1, depending on your data, which saves both money and disk write overhead. This comes up because of really good article Robin Harris of StorageMojo wrote, All de-dup works , on a paper, A Study of Practical Deduplication by Dutch Meyer and William Bolosky, For a great explanation o
