load balancing and high aviliability http services

[madal30]

Hello all,

There is a difference between load balancing cluster and high availability cluster. It turns out the Heartbeat is an fail over clustering method for services such as http. I need to have system for both fail over i.e high availbility setup (i guess that can be achieved via heartbeat) but also a load balancing. So, basically when there are 1000 https or http request it should really direct the request to lets say server A and server B. Could you plz point me into right direction or link, examples and installation, configurations ?

Thanks,

Madal
