RE: [squid-users] load balancing

Do a search for "round robin dns" "multiple a records" "clustering"
"redundancy" "failover". That should give good coverage on the techniques

Also...visiting www.squid-cache.org and searching for "failover" will help.

Subject: [squid-users] load balancing

Hi All

Please could I have either some ideas or solutions to the following:

I work for a BIG company, providing internet services for many customers.

I am planning to install a load balancing plan for our cache server, which
will obviously load balance, but will also have a redundant feature.

What can I do this with?

Basically have to servers service the caching, but "they must look like one
server" ... I am sure I sound stupid, but just to make sure.

Regards

Gert Brits
