If that's the case, the best advice I can give is upgrade to something less than 10 years old.Sun, 19 Feb 2012 03:17:35 GMTGilaMonsterhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1254353-49-1.aspxWe have one web server and one database server. The web server is then divided into virtual machine. Load balance r will manage the loads between virtual machines.my question is can we balance the load in sql server?Sat, 18 Feb 2012 21:05:49 GMTwalia_jagwinderhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1254353-49-1.aspxYou can't load balance two or more SQL Servers without huge amounts of work to keep the two databases in sync eg though (peer-to-peer replication). A HTTP load balancer requires two or more web servers, if there's only one web server, there's nothing to balance the load across.Typically you'd load balance a group of web servers and they'd all talk to a single SQL Server, probably a more powerful server.Sat, 18 Feb 2012 12:25:29 GMTGilaMonsterhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1254353-49-1.aspxHi all,My company is planing to implement load balancer for HTTP requests in case to increase the performance of website. We have two different servers, one is for website hosting and another is database server (sql 2008). As the website is having 80% of database operations, Does http load balancer will work? or Does we should have two load balancer , One if for HTTP requests and other is for sql server? Or can one load balancer will work for these two?Sat, 18 Feb 2012 11:26:58 GMTwalia_jagwinder
