Load balancing requests from CQ5 to external application

Hi,

Working on the PoC at the moment.

Essentially, request comes into CQ5, then CQ5 must send request to 1 of x servers in order to retrieve the data.

What are the options available in order to do load balance external application calls inside CQ5?

Thanks,

Peter

CQ5 doesnt have an option of loading balancing with external applications. You can use external tools like F5 or Akamai to achieve the same

Confirms to my original findings and knowledge. Thank you for confirming this on your side guys.

Will advise to use external tools.

Thanks,

Can you provide a little more detail on your use case. My initial reaction is that there aren't any tools in CQ5 to help with this and you'd be better off on relying on an external hardware load balancer.
