Author High Avalaibility with Apache on Windows Systems

Hi
I'm new in this group. I'm introducing myself with a topic a bit
complicated ... ;-)
I'm trying to realize a cluster of servers based on Windows 2003
server System.
I'm using Apache HTTP Server 2.2 as load balancing web server and I
whould like to perform the high availability to avoid that it whoud
become a "single point of failure".

Does anybody know if it is possible to perform high avaliability
(maybe usying "heartbeat" technic) with Apache on servers based on
Windows Systems?

I have found only articles speaking about that for servers based on
linux systems.

Thx to everyone.

Tivoli System Automation exists also for Windows (its like heartbeat,
but with more features.

There exists also hardware for this, some of them have also embedded
Linux on it. But at the end, I would suggest that you replace Windows
2003 Server with Linux or Solaris.

Thx Trinity

I will follow your advice I will use linux based servers.

I have found a good explanation about how to do that:

http://www.howtoforge.com/ high_ava..._cl
uster


.... in that it is raccomanded to create 4 nodes on Debian Sarge
systems:

2 nodes for Apache and 2 for making load balance.

Then the high avaliability will be done by installing Ultra Monkey
(Open Source).

Do you think that I can trust in that articol using Debian Sarge or
can you advice me a more completed one?

Thx

There is no such thing as "high availability on a Windows system".
