We are implementing cluster environment. One of the confusion i have is how Ajax behaves compare to IE plugin. Currently we have mix environment where some old dashboards are designed to be used in IE and newer ones to be used in Ajax.
Our new setup is as per below.
user --> HardwareLoadBalancer | ---> Webserver 1 | QVS 1 | QDS1
| ---> Webserver 2 | QVS 2 | QDS2
Questions:
1) If user request dashboard via AJAX client (Chrome/Firefox) browser, the request is sent to Webserver and based on load balancing algorithm it will chose particular QVS to facilatate your request. (confirm my understanding)
2) If the user request a dashboard via IE plugin. Then request is by passed from Webserver and goes to QVS server directly. Whicy QVS server does the request go to QVS1 or QVS2. Does this make loadbalancing and clustering obsolete. Does it still behave based on Load balance algorithm.
3) In our environment we are going to PIN some big dashboards to QVS2, in this case how does IE request gets handled.
