| 276 | 276 | It is important to understand that it wouldn't help to let all traffic run through our central Apache httpd server which usually acts as a reverse proxy with comprehensive URL rewriting rules and macros. This would make the Apache server the bandwidth bottleneck. Instead, the event traffic needs to go straight to the ELB which requires the event DNS domain name to be mapped to the ELB's host name. You need to set this up in the "Route 53" DNS server which you find in the Amazon Services drop-down. |

| 296 | 296 | Amazon ELB is designed to handle unlimited concurrent requests per second with “gradually increasing” load pattern (although it's initial capacity is described to reach 20k requests/secs). It is not designed to handle heavy sudden spike of load or flash traffic because of its internal structure where it needs to fire up more instances when load increases. ELB's can be pre-warmed though by writing to the AWS Support Team. |
