We are planning to try out WSO2 Greg and wanted to know if we use external hardware load balancer, do we still need to configure manager + worker node configuration or we can start two standalone instances connecting to same back end i.e. oracle database and load balance it via front end external load balancer?
Thanks
You can use a third-party load balancer for WSO2 GREG cluster. You do not have to use manager/worker configuration for Axis2 clustering (subDomain property) as we use with WSO2 ELB.
You will still have to configure Axis2 clustering without subDomain property. I would recommend you to use wka membership scheme and nominate few nodes as wka members in the cluster.
