Re: Microsoft .NET frontending IBM i

From: Richard Schoen
Actually going back to the original thread this is a good example
of scalability which in this case happens to be using Windows servers.


Adding more servers to a server farm is not my idea of responding to increasing
workloads "gracefully". Throwing more hardware at a performance problem is not
my idea of scalability. It's more a symptom that the system is NOT scalable.
Anybody can add a new server and route requests to it.

Of course, Microsoft is working from a different play book.
