You can configure your WebLogic Server cluster to provide
load balancing.
With the domain configuration complete, using the administration
server and clustered managed servers, you need a method to proxy
to forward to different managed servers for load balancing. You
can implement a proxy server for WebLogic by using one of these
mechanisms:
An instance of WebLogic Server and HttpClusterServlet.
(See Using Web Server Plug-Ins with WebLogic Server.)
A third-party proxy server, such as Apache, Microsoft IIS,
or Netscape IPlanet, with a WebLogic proxy plug-in. (See Using Web
Server Plug-Ins with WebLogic Server.)
A hardware-based load balancer such as F5’s BigIP (see BIG-IP® Product Family) or other products (see
Choosing a Hardware Load-Balancing Device).
Note: LiveCycle in a cluster environment supports
only sticky sessions for load balancing. The WebLogic plug-in for
Apache supports sticky sessions by default.
For complete instructions about setting up WebLogic for load
balancing, see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/cluster/load_balancing.html.
