Windows 2003 Server Clustering

Windows 2003 Server Clustering Consulting Services

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 meets the continuity requirements your business has without using staff or budget resources. You will be able to offer high availability for a wide variety of applications because the newest generation of Server Cluster is far less expensive to deploy and manage.  With network load balancing clusters you can scale your applications; allowing you to start small and grow only as demand proves necessary. Factor in the savings from improved availability—the scalability benefits, the simplified management, and competitive total cost of ownership—and Windows Server 2003 pays for itself.

Windows Server 2003 Clustering Features

Windows Server 2003 clustering consists of two different technologies: Server Cluster and Network Load Balancing (NLB). Each of these technologies can be used to provide high availability for different types of services. Server Cluster is primarily used to provide availability for mission critical applications through fail-over. Database, ERP or CRM, OLTP, file and print, e-mail, and custom application services are typically clustered using Server Cluster. NLB is used to provide high availability for applications that scale out horizontally, such as Web servers, proxy servers, and other services that need client requests distributed across nodes in a cluster.

Server Cluster

Server Cluster is a dramatically improved version of the Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) component included with Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows 2000 Datacenter Server. When you deploy Server Cluster, you first configure it between two and eight servers that will act as nodes in the cluster. Then you configure the cluster resources that are required by the application you’re clustering. These resources may include network names, IP addresses, applications, services, and disk drives. Finally, you bring the cluster online so that it can begin processing client requests.
