Can somebody point me to a resource that explains how to go about having 2+ IIS web server clustered (or Webfarm not sure what its called) ?
All I need is something basic, an overview how and where to start.
Can't seem to find anything...
This MSDN magazine article has a good overview of the technologies involved:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc500561.aspx
Microsoft have articles on TechNet about clustering IIS using Network Load Balancing. You can do this more simply than using special hardware load balancing.
For hardware load balancing you place a device in front of the web servers and it manages the load. Each device is different so you would want to check the manufacturers guides and compatibility.
You should also check that your application does not have problems with load balancing. The sticky session problem is just one problem you should find out more about.

http://www.iis.net/download/webfarmframework
http://www.iis.net/download/webdeploy
What you're after is called Load Balancing.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/0baca8b1-73b9-4cd2-ab9c-654d88d05b4f.mspx?mfr=true
There's a very good book on the topic:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Windows-Clustering-Balancing-Osborne-Networking/dp/0072226226/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1219249588&sr=8-1
A couple of good articles for those who are looking nowadays for information about Server Farms - Load Balancing and Application Request Rooting that I found and wanted to share are these:
HTTP Load Balancing using Application Request Routing:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/extensions/configuring-application-request-routing-arr/http-load-balancing-using-application-request-routing.

Im trying to make load testing for web application that based on Webrtc,
does someone knows with whitch tool can I test that application.
also I`d like to know if i can use Jmeter and if so , how can i use it ?
thanks a head
When it comes to load testing, WebRTC is different. And that's because WebRTC is peer-to-peer and not client server.
What you can test is the client server part, more specifically the signaling server and the STUN/TURN server. For these, you can easily use JMeter as for any web server. For STUN/TURN just follow the specs (though if you're using an existing server, I would leave this into the authors hands, unless you want to involve in that project too). For the signaling server, it depends on how you build it.
What you can also do with WebRTC is try to test with a controlled limited bandwidth and delay/jitter. This will be more like a smoke test, than a load one. To do this automatically is a little bit more complicated. especially if you want to do it with audio/video, not data.

I am creating a small website on Asp.net MVC and SQL server. After the development is over Client is now asking help for me to deploy the code. I don’t have any idea how to host this application in Production environment. Can anyone please list all requirements to me like
Buy Domain name like www.example.com
Do they need to buy SQL Server license as I use basic table and store procedure only
Do they have to buy windows OS? As this is very low budget website, could you please suggest the best cost effective option?
I have heard of hosting in Azure and other services are they cheaper? Do I have to buy SQL server license Azure?
The client is a startup company and the also don’t have any idea how to host a website.
For starters a shared asp.net web host will do
1.You can purchase shared hosting from many of the available hosting providers you can get a comprehensive list from - http://www.asp.net/hosting/home. Shared hosting is really cheap.You can get it for as low as 50 USD / year and you also get to create a SQL Server(usually providers have the latest version supported) DB for which you do not need a license.You could deploy your stored procedures,tables, views or use Entity framework .
2.Usually when you purchase shared hosting - the provider also takes care of registering a domain for you at a small fee
3.Once you get shared hosting , login with your credentials,you will see options in the Control panel to Deploy your website and you are ready to go.
If you anticipate heavy traffic on your website you could think of using Windows Azure later.

Hi what is the correct way to get two different web sites to talk to each other within Azure.
Today we tried to just make them talk through their Rest Api's but after 1000 requests we got locked out from the web site our calling web site were calling.
We know we can use a service bus to make them talk. But we would really like to be able to use the rest api:s.
Are there limitations in how much a web site can call another web site within azure?
There are several limits on websites, depending on what type you are using (free, shared, basic, standard)
With Free and Shared, you are limited on the CPU usage (60 minutes/day and 240 minutes/day) but also just for 2.5 minutes per 5 minutes. So when doing a lot of requests without a pause, you will run into this.
Another restriction on free websites is the data limit of 165 MB.
With Basic and Standard you have your own machine, so these restrictions don't apply

I want to write a web application that needs a websocket server.
I want to host this websocket server on some famous web hosting provider (such as 1&1 by example).
Which web hosting provider should I use?
If you want to use a websocket server which you can start and stop at will I would much rather recommend a cloud solution. It's cheap and lets you interact with the server directly, which is most likely impossible with more traditional hosting providers. I've only used Amazon Web Services and Google App Engine myself, they both have a free tier which you can use to build and test your websocket application. There are many more providers, also have a look at PaaS services like Nodejitsu. It all depends on what specific technologies you want to use I guess.
(note: AWS lets you SSH into your instance and you can use any platform/technology you want while GAE is web based and limited to Go, Java and Python. It doesn't mean AWS is better, again it depends on your case.)
You can use WebSockets for your .NET apps with GearHost at www.gearhost.com. It's free and gives you 100 free CloudSites and 100 free databases.

I'd like a system where I can manage my LAMP server. It is a real server, so it isnt a VPS. But apart from everyone else online, I dont want to sell space on it. I just want to manage it for my own purpose.
So I can change settings on the fly without accessing the Shell.
I would of course like it to be an active, either open source or free software.
Web UI is also a requirement.
As any configuration tool on various web hotels, with possibility to configure only for one mashine, and no virtual spaces or such.
Would be great, as after tons of googling I came to the conclusion that there are tons of systems and they all are too advanced or just look aweful and seem to complex.
My goals.
Manage domains,
Manage emails for domains,
Manage Apache (possibly vhosts and such)
Manage MySQL (could use phpmyadmin)
Manage logs and similar
Manage SVN (if possible)
Manage FTP
And such features, not too advanced stuff.
Much appriciated if you know any good systems of such caliber. Thanks.
