RE: How many servers?

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Steve,

 

At the moment, they are the same box ;-)

 

In the long run, however, there are some functionality things that will be much easier to do with a Linux web server.

 

However, I don't want to go through the hassle of migrating the databases over to Linux, so they'll stay on Win2k.

 

Regards,

Sounds great, and sounds like a job for ipcop.

 

But, could'nt you put server 2 and server 3 together?

I don't see any reasons for them to be seperate.

Subject: [ukha_d] How many servers?

Those of you who are running public webservers at home... How many machines?

 

I am increasingly thinking that I need three servers...

 

1: Public web server

- main purpose - the HA stuff

- to replace the existing personal site which is, erm, hosted by eKingfisher ;-)

 

The HA stuff is currently XHTML1.0-compliant, and uses Perl scripts running as Apache CGIs to query a MySQL database.

 

2: Internal web server

- Contains URLs to the web controls of the different DDARs / Rios, so I don't want external control ;-)

- Will end up running Jitter and JReceiver for hosting of the Java Servlet I need for streaming to the DDARs

 

3: Database / MP3 server

- Contains the MySQL database used by the HA logging _and_ the music database that JReceiver will use

 

If I were doing this for work, I'd have two firewalls - one between the Internet and Server (1), and one between Server (1) and Servers (2,3)

 

Given this is at home, I'll probably have a single firewall, but using three zones ;-)

 

Sound sensible?
