| Business Requirement |
- The human resource market grows when the Chinese economy grows. E-HR, or using internet technology is vital to the success of the market. Online job posting, recuiting and searching gains strong position for both recuiters and job hunters. Shangai, as the economic capital of the nation, creates more and more positions and attracts more and more talented people around the whole country. Talent Shanghai is facing the challenge to serve more and more users online. The current system, two servers of different host names running different functions, crawls everyday at peak time. Customers complain the slow speed and sometimes total denial of access. There's no easy way to fix the problem, they need a whole new idea to build the system for tomorrow.

Considerations of upgrade |
- Enough room for further performance upgrade
- No need to rewrite applications
- Minor affect the network topology and settings
- Control the one time investment
- Control the upgrade investment
|
| What We Did |
- We built the application cluster using TriLoad Balancer, one new application server is added to the cluster to provide more performance. Deploying all function models to all the application servers. The whole site shifted to the new environment just in 2 days within only 30 minutes maintainance window.
|
| Advantage of Using TriLoad: |
- Don't rewrite any business application
- Don't change network topology and other settings; or other investment in network devices,except an 1U Triload Balancer and a 2U PC server
- Servers with different configuration get suitable load in the cluster
- Load balanced to other servers when one server is down for maintainance
- New real server can be easily added to the cluster dynamically
