WebApp Load Balancing Demo
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Demonstrates balancing load acoss SCA services by deploying an SCA composite
|
|
to two tomcat servers in a cluster. The tomcat servers sit behind an Apache
|
|
server which directs load to one or other tomcat server based on a set of rules.
|
|
|
|
The mvn pom distributed with this sample will download, install and configure
|
|
two Tomcat servers automatically to act as workers. You need to install the
|
|
Apache web server and configure it manually.
|
|
|
|
1 - Install and configure the Tomcat workers
|
|
|
|
mvn
|
|
|
|
This results in two tomcat servers at
|
|
|
|
target/tomcat-8085
|
|
target/tomcat-8086
|
|
|
|
2 - Install and configure the Apache server to balance load
|
|
|
|
In this case we've chosen to use the native JK connector. There are several
|
|
resources that tell you how to configure Apache for load balancing Tomcat with
|
|
the JK connector. For example,
|
|
|
|
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/webserver_howto/apache.html
|
|
http://www.crazysquirrel.com/computing/debian/servers/tomcat55.jspx
|
|
|
|
Here is a high level summary
|
|
|
|
Download the latest version of Apache 2.2 (this demo was built with Apache 2.2.6)
|
|
http://httpd.apache.org/
|
|
Install in a local director called, say, apache
|
|
|
|
Download the mod_jk module (in binary form if you can)
|
|
http://tomcat.apache.org/download-connectors.cgi
|
|
Install it in apache/modules
|
|
|
|
Configure the mod_jk module
|
|
Copy src/test/resources/apache-80/conf/workers.properties to apache/conf
|
|
Append the contents of src/test/resources/apache-80/conf/httpd.conf to apache/conf/httpf.conf
|
|
|
|
3 - Start the apache and tomcat servers
|
|
|
|
In three command prompts
|
|
|
|
cd target/tomcat-8085
|
|
bin/catalina run
|
|
|
|
cd target/tomcat-8086
|
|
bin/catalina run
|
|
|
|
cd apache
|
|
bin/httpd
|
|
|
|
4 - Run the client
|
|
|
|
run the LanchClient program - TBD - need a script
|
|
|
|
5 - Result
|
|
|
|
The client will make 10 calls to the SCA service described in the helloworldws.composite that
|
|
is part of the webapp deployed to the tomcat servers. You will see the result of this
|
|
service call reported at the client in the form
|
|
|
|
Called getGreetings
|
|
Hello World 6
|
|
|
|
If you look at the Tomcat consoles you will see that each server deals with half the requests
|
|
as the load is balanced equally between the two of them.
