I am trying to set up a HA service for a bunch of applications across a

requires use of a large numbers of VIPS and use of the sorry server
option to fail over.
If we were able to use source address load balancing (ie switch traffic
based on the source IP address) we could simplify our design and get

Does “built to last” apply to IT?

Over the weekend, I bought an amazing antique chair: a fancy wooden office swivel chair in practically mint condition, including all its original cast-iron hardware. Although probably made between 1900 and 1915 (the patent date is 1897), it’s remarkably modern, with fully adjustable height, tilt, and back support, like the best Aeron chairs of today (well, its wooden surfaces are a tad stiffer). With any luck, it will last another 100 years and be just as functional.

In case of emergency, activate business continuity plan

Gemstar-TV Guide International hired Ed Sullivan to direct Business Continuity Services in 2003, soon after an audit found that TV Guide’s infrastructure was essentially unrecoverable in the event of a sustained crisis. There was a time when Sullivan’s first stop for addressing the issue would have been IT and the datacenter. But times have changed -- Sullivan first conducted several weeks of meetings with senior executives and various business unit executives to talk about the company’s business processes. “The fact that I work for the CIO is almost irrelevant,” Sullivan says. “I’m there to provide recovery for the business units.”
