Creating Web Application for Web Farm

271 Contributor
Hi,
I was asked to create a web application which is going to be running on a web farm. Now my questions are
1. I was asked to use windows authentication for connecting to SQL database, will this work when i am running my application in a web farm?
2. What are the settings i should make to make my application work fine in a web farm environment?
3. I have planned to use a SQL persistant state for sessions, is this the best one or is there any other for web farm environment.
4. What are the other things that i should consider while deploying my application in a web farm.

Thanks & Regards

Seems like you already know what needs to be done :)

I'm not sure how the Windows Authentication will work in your web farm environment. It's probably best you look into how this will work in an web farm environment.

You've already addressed the main problem I can see when running an ASP.NET application in a web farm environment: make sure that, if you're using session, it is configured so that it can span across the multiple web servers.

There are a couple of options that you can use.
Check out this article on Sessions for a bit more information.

Cheers!

I don't know why the link is no longer working.
The article can be found in the .NET articles section....and it still exists.
Here's a new link to the article on Sessions.

Hi ThatThatGuy,
Thanks for the reply. now my question is if i want to use windows authentication to connect my sql 2005 database which is on a different server (not in the application server) what are the settings i have to make on both the servers. as my client is more specific on the application to be on a web farm and the database connections are to be made with windows auth.

Hi, I have been trying to find a good article that would explain the scalability of the cache and application variables accross a web farm. I believe that application variables will not scale accross a web farm, however I am undecieded about settings stored in the cache. If anybody can shed any light on this for me or point me in the direction of good articles on the subject then it would help mr a great deal.

Hi all, We've just migrated to IIS 6.0 / Windows Server 2003. We are now experiencing some stability problem what we did not experience in IIS 5.0 / Windows 2000 Server. Our ASP.NET application is running in a web-farm environment of multiple web servers. We have been using "Performance Monitor" to monitor the "Requests in Application Queue" counter of "ASP.NET Apps v.1.1.4322" object. We have found the following pattern.

I have some data that is been retrieved from a call to sql server stored procedure that I want to store for a period of time in a web farm architecture.

But is this the best resolution or is there any other methodology that I can use which will be more...
