Hi all,
Appreciate if anyone can help.
Currently i am working on a web portal project that will use IIS as the web server. We plan to use either windows server 2003 or 2008 entreprise edition as operating systems and SQL 2005 or 2008 enterprise to host the databases. Web server and Database server will be different machine.
The users of the web portal will be located at three separate locations that are few kilo meters away. Leased line connections will be built to interconnect these 3 zones. These 3 zone will be in the same network but in different subnet.
The requirements of this project is to have 2 servers (web+database) at each zone. The web server and SQL server are identical at these 3 zones.
Zone 1: Webserver1, SQL1
Zone 2: Webserver2, SQL2
Zone 3: Webserver3, SQL3
At normal operation, users should access the servers at their respective zone. The SQL data set in these 3 zones must synchronised to each other so all users will have up to date information.
If the webserver1 is down, the users at Zone 1 should access the webserver2 at Zone 2 but still update to SQL1. If the SQL1 is down, the users at zone 1 should access Webserver1 and update to SQL2. Only when both the SQL1 and SQL2 is down at the same time, then Webserver1 will update to SQL3.
Is it possible to achieve the requirements above by using Windows cluster & SQL Cluster services?
Thanks again,
Best regards,
Ken
