    HA load balancing without Apache?

    rnikander

      Hi,

       

      I'm researching Wildfly because I want to be able to redeploy a web app with zero downtime. I currently have nginx+Jetty and I can't do this.  I've watched the demo with two servers, one shuts down and sessions move to surviving server. That's what I want. Can I do it without Apache? I haven't used that server in years so I'd prefer to use nginx or something within Wildfly itself as the load balancer.  Possible? 

       

      This article says it's possible, but I can't find documentation on how to do it. http://www.infoq.com/news/2014/02/wildfly8-interview.  "with Undertow WildFly can now function as an efficient non-blocking reverse proxy without the need for Apache or Nginx".

       

      thanks,

      Rob
