Jason T. Greene currently leads the JBoss Application Server project, which is a popular open-source application development platform. He is also a member of the JCP, and represents Red Hat on the future Java EE6 and Contextual DI specifications. During his tenure at JBoss, he has worked in many areas including the application server, clustering, web services, AOP, and security. His interests include concurrency, distributed computing, hardware and programming language design.
Brian Stansberry completed his M.A. in East Asian Studies at Stanford University in the U.S. Before getting bitten by the software bug, he had a successful career in corporate finance. But he eventually realized his true love was software, and since then he's focused on server-side development and Java. He started contributing to JBoss in 2003 and joined the company in 2005. He's the technical lead for JBoss Application Server clustering.
His other interests are geopolitics, contemporary China, baseball and spending time with his wife and daughter.

mod_cluster : A new httpd-based load balancer
SPEAKER: Brian Stansberry COMPANY: Red Hat, Inc.
SLIDES: 090313_BrianStansberry_mod-cluster-jug.pdf
Mod-cluster is a next generation Apache httpd-based load balancer that is nearing its 1.0.0.GA release. Like mod_jk and mod_proxy, mod_cluster can proxy requests to a cluster of Tomcat-based webservers (either standalone Tomcat, standalone JBoss Web or JBoss AS). Where it differs from other load balancers is in the use of two-way communication between the back end Java servers and the load balancers, allowing ease of configuration and tight control of the load balancer behavior by the Java servers.
This presentation will introduce the architecture of mod_cluster and discuss the benefits it brings compared to other load balancing solutions. We'll show how to integrate mod_cluster with JBoss AS, JBoss Web and Tomcat, and how to use mod_cluster's rich set of load distribution options. The talk will include a demonstration of mod_cluster.
