Eddie Reviews

Eddie Description

Eddie is a high-availability clustering tool. It is 100% open-source software and can be used for Solaris, Linux, and *BSD. Certain servers are designated Front End Servers at each site. These servers are responsible to distribute incoming traffic through designated Back End Servers and track the availability of Back End Web Servers within each site. Back End Servers can support Apache and a variety of other Web servers. The Enhanced DNS server provides load balancing and monitoring site accessibility for geographically dispersed web sites. This allows for 24/7 access to all the site's available resources, regardless of where they are located. The Eddie white papers outline the Eddie approach and describe the need for Eddie products.
