Re: Which scales better? J2EE, PHP, or CGIDEV2?

For PHP it would be the same.  Just fire up another Apache instance on a 
different port.  Nothing special there.

Re: [WEB400] Which scales better? J2EE, PHP, or CGIDEV2?






Regarding routing requests from one Apache instance to another, that 
reminds me 
of how PHP worked under IBM i originally.  Nobody like that.  But 
regarding 
running multiple independent Apache instances, folks might do that to host 

different versions of their software in separate libraries and use an 
Apache 
instance to point to each.  That seems like a valid requirement.  Also, if 

you're providing Cloud services to the States of New York and Montana, you 
might 
configure a couple Apache instances accordingly.  New York uses one 
instance, 
Montana uses the other.

What would it take to separate software versions or separate cloud 
customers 
under JEE and PHP?

So in theory I could have a "main router" Apache instance that
received in the TLD request (i.e. mowyourlawn.com/pgmname) and then
forwarded that request off to another Apache server instance that
operated on a different port and all subsequent request would go to
that instance of Apache?  I guess it might be better to have a network
appliance accomplish this task instead of doing it in an RPG program -
though it would be nice to have the control entirely on the IBMi.

Or in short, does your statement mean I could have 10 Apache instances
for a total possibility of 99,990 concurrent threads/jobs?
