What module(s) should I use with Apache to provide SSL termination and Load-Balancing to non-clustered WebLogic instances?

http://serverfault.com – We have WebLogic installed on two separate RHEL 5.6 servers. An Apache web server instance will be installed on each of those servers which will be configured to listen on 80 and 443 and redirect any requests from 80 to 443. SSL will terminate at the Apache web server and traffic between the Apache web server and the WebLogic servers will not need to be encrypted. I want the Apache instance to round robin load-balance to the WebLogic servers with sticky sessions and want the web server to be aware if one of the servers is down (and if so, not to route requests to the down server). What Apach (HowTos)

I'm currently using Oracle WebLogic module for Apache (mod_wl.so) [newest version for WebLogic 11g]. Doing so I have numerous WebLogic mounts and due to that I have need of using the WLExcludePathOrMimeType directive. My Problem is that regardless of whether I exclude a path or a file type, once it is excluded from the WebLogic mount point, Apache stops all MIME processing. I.e.

I'm currently working with a Magento Enterprise 1.12 installation running on a pair of clustered Apache web servers. Both of my web servers draw from their own databases on separate servers which are clustered in a Master-Master MySQL configuration.

My problem is that I'm attempting to introduce Solr 3.6.1 into the picture and I'm somewhat unsure of how to properly add it to my cluster.

We have 50 RHEL Apache web-servers. We want all the Apache logs to be processed on a dedicated server meant for this purpose as we don't the dependencies of log processing application installed on our production servers.

What is the best way to accomplish it ?

Trying to decide between these two configs:

Nginx -> HAProxy -> Apache servers Nginx -> Apache servers

I'm wondering what benefits there are of using the first configuration over the second. I've heard that HAProxy is better at load balancing than Nginx but wasn't able to find any specifics.

Also, how much of a performance difference is there between the first and second option?

Hi i don't know much about Apache or Linux. i rented a server to run CS 1.6 game servers. I had someone install Apache and configure my server to be able to use control panel for my game servers( i am running 4 gservers and have 5 ips = 1 ip is free). When i type my primary ip in the web browser it displays the Apache test page.

I use following configuration to load balance https connections, using haproxy 1.4.8.

Two dedicated separate servers running with identical configuration of hardware (Dual E5-2620 32GB) in similar environment (CentOS 6.3, Apache+PHP+MySQL) serving similar tasks, but behaving in different way of processing Apache web server - CPU usage 17x times bigger in server which has lower requests.

CPU Usage: u2.03 s1.05 cu316.97 cs0 - 4.35% CPU load 11.9 requests/sec - 5.3 kB/second - 4

We have 2 internal web servers that are being load balanced round robin by an ACE. The ACE is going away and will not be replaced with an appliance.

My boss would like to have the 2 internal web servers receive the http requests and decide between them which will actually handle the request in a round robin configuration without adding an additional server or appliance into the equation.
