I think that you would want to ensure that the online ordering system was capable of being load balanced first.  Some apps won’t handle sessions across several nodes and will require a load balancer to align a session with a particular node on subsequent requests.   That might limit the number of products that will work.

Hey guys,

 

I am looking to provide a load balancing solution to a client for an online ordering system which will use SSL.

 

I am interested in different solutions being deployed out there and any experiences with the following:

 

-          Squid reverse proxy

-          Cisco Content Services (CSS) Switch 11500 series

-          Radware AppDirector 1000

-          CoyotePoint e250GX

-          Any others?

 

...Skeeve
