Question
Event Gateways in Multiserver Environment
Hi all
As a company we are looking to deploy a Flex application using 'push' messaging.
The backend is a multiserver Coldfusion 8 setup behind a load balancer. My concern is around the multiserver setup while using event gateways. If a client consumes from a particular gateway on a particular server, and a CF process on another server produces for a gateway on it's server how will the data push occur thus updating all clients consuming from the gateways on all servers.
I'm afraid we will have to get the CF process on one server produce for it's own gateway and we'll have to get all clients to consume from that gateway - thus not allowing us to spead the load across all CF servers using thier own gateways in the multi-server environment.
Am I missing something here? This area appears to be fairly new, so any and all comments appreciated.
Cheers,
Ciaran
