Load Balancing

I'm looking to learn more info on load balancing sites/apps between a cluster of servers. Anyone have any advice or links on where to begin?

Re: Load Balancing

look for applications that use LVS (linux virtual server) for loadbalancing.
I used to use keepalived for this (it also supports VRRP for failover), nowadays I hear haproxy is a good tool

Re: Load Balancing

We use kaswitch at work for H/A setups. Generally works well.
