On Windows & Linux?
Doubletake. (Or an OEM version - HP OpenView Storage Mirroring).
We keep 25 million files in sync between two sites across a WAN.
DNS?
Load balancers do that automatically. They have features like GSLB that test each site and dish out 'A' records for the one that's up.
- marcamillion 17y agoBut doesn't the load balancer solution still restrict him to just the same host. Are there any solutions out there that would allow you to achieve the same effect, but say between two different providers. i.e. Rackspace goes down, all traffic is seamlessly redirected to Slicehost for example.
- rm-rf 17y agoYes. Load balancers have 'site level' load balancing, sometimes called 'Global Server Load Balancing' or something similar. They have the ability to direct users to a new site by changing the DNS 'A' record t IP's at the new site.
