How to setup server cluster

in Help Center
I want to be able to use ICE with cluster of servers, so that I can transparently add or remove servers from the cluster as required, according to load. The clients should not be aware of any change.
What is the best to do this with ICE?

Currently the easiest way to do this is at the application level through the use of an interface to get a proxy of a replica or a proxy containing the endpoints of multiple replicas. The implementation of this interface would take care of keeping track of the replicas and the load balancing.
In the near future, IceGrid will provide support for replication with indirect proxies which will allow you to do just that. Your client will use an indirect proxy (a proxy without endpoint information). The endpoints of this proxy will be resolved at runtime by the IceGrid service. See the second issue of the Ice newsletter for more information on IceGrid!
