hi all...
I caught Theo's presentation way back in ApacheCon Orlando - cool stuff.
anyway, just curious if anyone knows about using backhand with recent
versions of BigIP - the network guys here are saying that BigIP 4.0 can do
all the proxying stuff that backhand can do. well, they actually hadn't
heard of backhand, so they were just saying that it could do what I was
describing, but it's been a while since the presentation.
are these guys on track?
also, I swore that there was a couple of slides in the ApacheCon
presentation that showed the peaks when just using BigIP and how backhand
could truly level the load across a cluster. I didn't see it in any of the
slides at backhand.org. Does anyone have a nice pretty picture of something
like that that I can show management? right now I'm just trying to convince
them to compile it into the servers in our test lab, but everyone thinks F5
is all we need and it's not worth even investigating...
thanks
