Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Dedicated Server : Server management - cluster/load balancing?

[cianuro]

Hi there,
Further to my previous request for advice, it looks like I am going to ahve to go with a load balanced or clustered solution.

Can anyone reccomend a third party that can handle the setup and configuration as well as maintenance of a cluster or load balanced setup?

platinumservermanagement said they cannot handle this and I have been waiting on a reply from serverwizards.

Any ideas?
Also, can anyone reccomend a decent provider of high end cluster solutions? (Fully managed would solve my previous problem)

Thanks again for all the wonderful advice I have received so far.

I would recommend going with a DC which supports managed load balanced solutions - as you would have a lot more flexibility, and have floor staff who are able to work directly on your servers, rather than relying on a third party.

Do you have any reccomendations? I actually contacted you yesterday.

Greetings cianuro:

Were you planning on using an automation system (partial or full)?

If so, from whom?

Thank you.

why do you need clustering? what are you running?

if it is really a major setup you will need to go with a managed provider like rackspace or savvis.

there is also some talk about www.mosso.com on these boards, but i am not sure how scalable it is. i have been looking at it trying to get more info.
