Wordpress high availability web farm
Posted on 2012-04-03
Experts,
I need to setup a Wordpress Web farm. A high availability solution. I'm having a really hard time finding all the tweaking that goes with this project. Wordpress seems straight forward when it comes to one server and one MySQL. I need High Availability.
1. This will be set up on apache webserver, Centos System. Need Apache Load Balance
2. How can I create a Wordpress load balancing, high availability or redundant system.
3. Guide on MySql Load balancing (at least ideas, I can live with 1 DB while I get the Web/Wordpress started.
I would really appreciate if somebody has a "how to", or a case study, white paper or something that will serve as a guide.
I have found VIP Wordpress services online but they cost a fortune, this is something that I would like to implement.
Thank you

Our setup involves (in the cloud) 2 highly available web servers and a single MySQL server. The apache servers are load balanced using the provider's application utility. I agree this is made easier due to the utility we have. From a OS point of view you would need to setup something like ha from here linux-ha.org. You can also find a youtube video from here to get you started..

What do you recommend to create an internal / inhouse solution for Apache load balancing?
I don't want to host it outside my company. I want to have the load balancer in my server room.
Thanks
