    Deploying to Multiple servers

    Hello I'm a UI developer for a large UK based Ecommerce website, we are considering using Umbraco to manage all of our content (blogs, faqs, T&cs...)

    The question I have is if it is possible to deploy to multiple servers with courier? We have 7 production servers and 1 production db server, and would we need umbraco installed on each server?

    Thanks

    Graeme

    Hi Greame,

    Courier is only required to transfer content between different installations (databases) of Umbraco. For example a staging and a production environment.

    Umbraco has built-in support for load balancing scenarios like you describe, where the content is copied to each webserver on publishing.

    I'm not sure if stock Umbraco supports copying of changes to the css/xslt and masterpages (templates) to each webserver but I don't see why it could not handle this if the changes are made in Umbraco's UI.

    And yes, you would need to install the Umbraco web site files on each webserver and configure them for distributed publishing (not sure of the correct terminology).

    You could try asking in the standard Umbraco forums if anyone there can give more details on setting up Umbraco for load balancing as I've never done it ;)

    Hi Greame,

    If you have an umbraco.tv subscription, you might want to watch the videos on load balancing, these should tell you everything you need to know to set this up:
