Re: [semanticweb] Purl.org offline?

All,

I once read a book on high performance web applications, I'm not really sure 
which one it was, but it might have been this book:
 http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596102357/

The author also recommended a High Availability solution, which was intended 
for high-traffic dynamic sites. This means that one machine cannot serve all 
requests or all levels of the application alone. It struck me that the 
methodology could be used to ensure high availability for distributed 
projects too. 

Perhaps the solution for purl is much simpler, static files are easy to serve, 
but the idea was basically to assign two addresses to each machine, so that 
one could dynamically change those addresses to point to a different cluster 
if one machine fails. 

I think this is something that one may want to look into.

Kind regards
