When you searching for web host you always read this ads.
99% of operational server is sounding GREAT, but in real web application of financial transactions as example; this percentage is CATASTROPHIC & loss a lot of everything!
WHY?
99% up means 1% off which means 1% of 1 Year = 3.65 DAYS offline!!!! IMAGINE Visa or MasterCard offline for 3.6 days!!!

That is why kubernetes eliminates the gaps.

Just using 1 loadbalancer and 12 dedicated servers for all my jobs, I never experienced a downtown.

Is it Loadbalancer?

It supports loadbalancer and containers. There are a lot of crash course tutorials for kubernetes on YouTube.

are you using b4j servers? how many requests do you have per day to those servers?

thanx

No not using b4j servers. All servers are ubuntu with LAMP on it.

Most busiest 2 servers have around 15M requests/day. One is serving API requests, other one is feeding my apps.
Other 10 dedicated is for other purposes.

ok but the web app that serves the Api requests is it build with b4j?



?

thats a lot of quests. what kind of api is it?

No it is built with php with apache server.

It is a financial data distribution API. In fact, not much users but every users send nearly 2-3 requests a second so it makes so much.

i am working on a big project for the last few weeks and i was unsure what i should use for the backend because I expect lots of requests from the server.
i was debating between Node.JS + MongoDB and B4j + MySql. after lots of thinking i started with the second option and i hope i will not be disappointed with the performance since changing it back to the first option will be too big an effort.

i am making good progress but a long way to go (maybe 6 month). then i will think if i will use one of my own pc's as the server (of course i will use Apache server LAMP) or i will use a VM by from google cloud (also LAMP Server). will see...

home servers are generally not stable due to power loss, internet disconnections etc.. Paying some dollars to cloud servers will probably be better.
