Starting this week I will be looking at Application Request Routing (ARR) which is a solution provided by Microsoft for IIS 7/7.5 which allows IIS to function as a load balancer (specifically as a reverse proxy). This greatly simplifies the process of creating a load balancer, keeps the costs very affordable, and offers tremendous control and programmability options.
This week’s video gives an introduction, sets up a new server farm, and then talks about what I call the 3 touch points in ARR.
This is now the 6th week in a mini-series on web farms, and the 31st week of the entire series. You can view past and future weeks in the section below.
