Hi,

 

 

Our devs are still writing ASP.Net/MSMQ/SQL based application, its a portal with single log on and many different ordering systems all based with us but potentially on different IIS servers. We lab in a few weeks so I have no idea what state info is needed as yet, hopefully very little. Unfortunately the devs are not writing code based on Big-ip capabilities such as authenication. For a small company we are building in a lot of redundancy (fw clusters, aggregated switches, SAN etc..) and we have two months to do it all!

 

 

I'm here just picking brains really. My thinking is the big-ip can do so much for a web farm and the community write shared code is the session state handled by one of them.

 

 

Looking to cover these senarios:

 

 

User experience not affected across ordering systems when server/software fails.

 

User experience not affected during maintenance period.
