Rules / Class / Performance

Here's more info, thanks for helping.

 

 

1 We used to run .asp and had many sites per pool with more nodes per pool. We have moved to .jsp and are limited by physical memory (each JVM takes X amount) therefore we have less sites + nodes per pool = more pools.

 

 

2 Each JVM listens on its own port making it very flexible to manage (marking down) without affecting other sites in a pool (as opposed to all using port 80); therefore 1-to-1 URL to pool. Each pool = 1 client instance of our app.

 

 

3 How equally is the traffic distrubuted among pools?

 

 

Can't say at this time, I generally compare the pool stats and move the "bigger" clients to the top of the rule. Using the new method, I would rank the server pools and then each client site within each pool.

 

 

4 URL's: http://productname.company.com/clientname/

 

 

Strings = "clientname" as shown in above URL.
