Re: Session and Multi Server Architecture

well guys, im reading all this stuff about LVS and so forth, and i must admit, i really dont know the first thing about it. i mean, i do understand the vserver concept, is LVS essentially the same as v-server, http://linux-vserver.org/Welcome_to_Linux-VServer.org ? also, i dont understand how LVS is used to implement a 'persistent' session. allow me to explain my disconnect.. so you are using virtual servers on a real system; what benefit, in the context of sessions does this provide over a single machine w/ 1 os? another fundamental disconnect is, how are you using these machines to store session state, a network filesystem? also, in terms of scalability, isnt facebook proof that memcache can scale? thanks, -nathan
