The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Multiple instances of Apache on single web server

Asked by Electrokardiogram in Apache Web Server

Tags: apache, multiple, instances, server, web

We currently have an Oracle Application Server 9i application which we are planning to convert to use Oracle Application Server 10g. As part of this process, we are considering the conversion of our application from a 3-tier to a 4-tier architecture. Much of the architecture will remain the same except for the addition web tier, as our web and application tiers are currently combined. My main concerns revolve around our Apache installation.

I will appreciate it if someone will provide a list of the main aspects of this architecture change that we will need to address. Essentially, we currently have 1 web/application server that serves all requests from web users, and users can go to one of 3 regions we have set up (two for testing and training and one for production). Apache resides on this web/application server and serves all of these requests. We are interested in moving Apache to the new web tier, and placing the 3 regions on separate application servers.

I do not think this task will be difficult, but do not know all of the items we need to address. For example, what will we need to do regarding our SSL certificate? If the web tier is confined to one box, do we need one - or more - SSL certificates? What about ports between the two tiers? Can we still use one main web address?

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
