rugby load-balancing

 [1/3] from: koopmans::itr::ing::nl at: 13-Aug-2001 14:54


This one is for Pekr ;-) A general load-balancing scheme would be: 1) Create a rugby server that is the load balancer. 2) All servers register there 3) clients register/unregister there and ask for a server such as: rexec [ add-client me] serv: rexec [ get-server] rexec/with [ my-func ] serv I currently use rugby client from a FastCGI app to a dedicated rugby server, nothing fancy there in terms of load balancing. We rununder Linux / Solaris with MySQL and Oracle links, no problems there. Your ODBC crash may result from state you keep overthe requests? Unsetting al request based words may help to prevent this. I have had a similar problem when I accidentally created self-modifying code, resulting in a crash in stead of unpredictable behaviour. BTW: Rugby 4 (Rugby 4 U) is almost finished with automated stub generation and oneway and deferred sexec and finally! documentation

So, if I understand it correctly, your Apache/FastCGI script (assuming you use FastCGIExternalServer set-up) connects to Rebol listening process (open fastcgi://, not multiplexed, just default as presented by RT), which is simply client to your main Rebol Rubgy server?

I think not. I never seen it under Linux though. I get the error on local machine, under Apach Win2K set-up - there's tcp problems somewhere, if you press reload in IE imediatelly after Rebol process started to do some stuff ...

eh, I may be dumb, but what is "stub"? :-) Thanks, -pekr-

Hey Pekr, FastCGI: we use cgi compatibility mode (option 2 from the docs) and let apache do the work there. Gives pretty good perormance as it instantiates multiple and keeps them alive. I have the solution for a standalone FastCGI to Rugby mentally worked out, but I have little time for that ;-( A stub is a (set of) client side substitute(s) for remote functions. You'll be able to do something like: database-logic: import-from/as-context tcp://cool.com:8001 which will make wrapper functions locally available of all functions that are available in that rugby server. Cool huh? --Maarten
