How a client in Ireland gets sent to a server in England while someone
on the east coast of USA gets a server in NewYork I don't know. The
machine name is the same in both cases. Anyone know how this is handled?
You either use:
a) Server side re-direct
b) DNS based geographic load balancing
c) BGP
d) Combination of BGP & Geographic DNS
My 2 'additional' cents:
If we are talking about web services, a nice but not very known and
sometimes also not feasible approach is the proxy.pac URL hash load
balancing, best explained at:
