Chapter 3
Designing Your System
In the next diagram, a Web server has a MapAgent that points to several
Autodesk MapGuide Servers, each of which has exactly the same data as the
others. In this case, requests made to this server will be distributed among the
Autodesk MapGuide Servers based on their availability, so if one of the
Autodesk MapGuide Servers is busy processing another request, the request
will go to the next server.
Example of mirrored data
For maximum benefit, you can use a combination of the two approaches. For
example, in the mirrored data illustration, Web Server 2 might be one of
several Web servers that is used only when requests are made for its particular
data. However, when requests are made to Web Server 2, all requests it
receives are distributed for processing among three Autodesk MapGuide
Servers, each of which contains exactly the same data. Thus, in this example
using a combination of methods, several Web servers use the distributed data
model, and one of the distributed Web servers also uses the mirrored data
model to handle its individual requests.
Setting Up Multiple Servers
If you choose to have multiple Autodesk MapGuide Servers on your network,
you must configure their TCP/IP settings to operate correctly through your
Internet connection configuration. Also, to maximize performance, be sure
to set up your MapAgent for load balancing between the servers.
