Title: GAD Architecture
Post by: Sylvainsjc on June 26, 2008, 02:42:12 PM

Hi all,

I'm not an web server expert but i'm looking for the best way to deploy GAD using Apache HTTP Server 2.2.9 and Tomcat6.

Questions :

1) Is there any advantage to deploy GAD like this ?
Client Browser ==> Apache HTTP Server ==> Tomcat Connector Mod_jk ==> Tomcat ==> webapps/gdesktop

In this configutation, all gdesktop requests are send via the connector and i'm wondering about the needs to use Apache HTTP Server

2) Is it possible to works like this ?
Client Browser ==> Apache HTTP Server ==> webapps/gdesktop and to send only jsp or do or servlet requests to tomcat

Thanks for your help

Advise Advise read out this how-to:
[url=http://www.serverwatch.com/tutorials/article.php/2203891]http://www.serverwatch.com/tutorials/article.php/2203891[/url]

The advantage of this configuration is - LoadBalanser. In my configuration, it looks like this:

Client Browser ==> Apache (Primary)    ==> TomCat GAD (1)
                                  |-LoadBalansing
                            Apache (Secondary) ==> TomCat GAD (2)

Hi Sylvainsjc,

Deploying Apache in front of GAD/Tomcat could improve performance of GAD application as Apache provides higher performance when serving static content (html pages, images etc.). Such deployment including server tuning tips is described in "Genesys Desktop 7.5 Deployment Guide". The architecture looks like your 2nd schema then (client -> Apache -> mod_jk (for jsp only) -> Tomcat).
