Load Balancing Database Servers

[Olly]

Hi,

Has anyone successfully do this with any type of Database Server.

SQL 2005/8 unfortunately does not support Load balancing (only failover clustering) and some advice on technology will be appreciated

Regards,

Olly

What type of data , static.......?

Dymanic data -- it seems liek SQL does not support this at all -- I am very surprised considering that they want to be leaders in the data market

MS SQL only supports various types of fail-over/High availability; unfortunately no load balancing! I assume you want to load balance for performance? We have products that can assist with this, what exactly are you trying to achieve?

SQL can load balance provided its read only
