Fault Tolerance for Virtualized Applications
We previously discussed the need to provide fault tolerance to applications that are running in your virtual machines. You might have wondered how this was accomplished, so we're going to take some time to look at possible solutions.
Network Load Balancing
This is probably one of the easiest application fault-tolerant solutions to understand in a Hyper-V context because it isn't that different from deploying network load balancing in the physical server world.
Network load balancing is used when applications or services that are hosted on a server either have static data or have no data at all. A number of identical servers can be deployed, and a load-balancing mechanism can be used to spread the load ...
