A very important topic when discussing clustering is the session state management across multiple hardware nodes. You will need to store ASP.NET session state variables in the SQL database instead of work process memory.

Well, right now we are testing just running our load-balancer with "session affinity" so that once a user makes a request and is "round-robined" to a web front-end server, they "stick" to that server so their session remains in proc on the server they "stick" to.  This way we don't have to share session state.  However, if your experience tells you that DNN doesn't behave well in this scenario (with session affinity on load-balancer), please feel free to share your experiences and or opinions. 

Thanks for the feedback!

We use session affinity in a few web farms and it works great. One point to note, AOL users can make life difficult. Because of the proxying done by AOL, occasionally  a user may have more than one IP address. Strange...but true.

 Hello Will,

 

Just been reading your thread from last year, how is the system working for you now?  Was is performance you were striving for or redundancy.  How have both been.  

From a performance  perspective, how does your DNN environment compare to a standalone machine ?

 

thanks for enjoyable reading,
