Hostfarm's load balancing solutions provide great flexibility in how traffic is directed between our customers' clustered servers.

Our load balancers can automatically detect changes in server status and route requests to the server best able to satisfy each incoming request, based on a variety of factors like capacity, availability, response time, current load and historical performance.

Server clusters is a general term used to describe clusters based on the Microsoft® Cluster Service (MSCS), as opposed to clusters based on Network Load Balancing.

Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000 Enterprise Edition
(64-bit) is one example of an application that can make use of the increased memory space of 64-bit Windows Server 2003 (up to 4TB – Windows 2000 Datacenter only supports up to 64GB), while at the same time taking advantage of clustering. This provides an incredibly powerful platform for the most computer intensive applications, while ensuring high availability of those applications.
