------=_NextPart_000_0C33_01C4ED83.AA458D00 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, My Company is preparing to build a large scale hardware infrastructure = to support our new modperl application that we expect will generate = quite a bit of traffic. Our company will be 'betting the farm' on this application and it's = ability to handle a lot of users. We will need load balancing with failover and a correctly designed = network. We have a great IT department who are already spec'ing this out, but I = am wondering if there is a modperl expert around who has experience with = large scale modperl applications who could consult on the planning and = design of the infrastructure. I am thinking about a day or more where someone could come in and = discuss their experience around load balancing and network setup and = provide advice to our IT staff. We need someone to advise/suggest/guide = and then we will implement. We are considering hardware based systems = such as the Cisco CSS Content services switch. We are in Santa Clara, CA (SF bay area) and would prefer someone local = although that is not absolutely necessary. (We also have people in = Austin TX) What is important is that whoever it is has experience with = modperl applications in a high-availability load-balanced environment. We would obviously pay consulting fees. It could be a day or could = become more. We need this in the next few days/weeks, so if this = interests anyone please let me know soon. The application consists of one or more front end apache (2.0.x) = machines proxypassing to one or more modperl (apache 1.3.x) app servers. All state info is stored in a single mysql DB at this point, so this is = not a 'sticky' application (which could possibly change). We are also = accessing MSSQL 2000 data. Thanks! Joe Junkin Please respond to my email address above. ------=_NextPart_000_0C33_01C4ED83.AA458D00 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2800.1479" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hi,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>My Company is preparing to build a = large scale=20 hardware infrastructure to support our new modperl application that we = expect=20 will generate quite a bit of traffic.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Our company will be 'betting the farm' = on this=20 application and it's ability to handle a lot of users.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>We will need load balancing with = failover and=20 a correctly designed network.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>We have a great IT department who = are already=20 spec'ing this out, but I am wondering if there is a modperl expert = around who=20 has experience with large scale modperl applications who could consult = on the=20 planning and design of the infrastructure.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I am thinking about a day or more where = someone=20 could come in and discuss their experience around load balancing and = network=20 setup and provide advice to our IT staff.
