How can you go through all steps required in successfully architecting and engineering a High Availability (HA) environment for ColdFusion web application in one hour? How to distill 8 years of tuning, load-testing, network engineering etc? Well today I will finish up the guts of my presentation for Adobe Max Europe 2008 and I have done my best to do just that and as I lived in Sheffield for 10 years I think I am allowed to borrow the title of that famous film because it truly will be and is "The Full Monty".
When planning an HA implementation we have to consider or employ all of the following:
- The Network Equipment- type, speed, connection media.
- Server hardware -32-bit, 64-bit, processors, hard drive configuration.
- We must load-test applications to determine the number of servers and other equipment needs.
- And quite a lot more including optimizing the ColdFusion application code.
My presentation will include a good deal of graphical representations and a good deal of interactivity and of course Milan is a very beautiful city.

@Kev thanks for your comments, I wish there could be more than one hour because this is such an expansive subject, have to apply my brain to that thought.
