Casandra#1   Casandra#2  Casandra#3  Casandra#4

Thanks!
but What I want to know how to work on keepalived with unicast patche modul.
ELB is expansive.

and this is first totaly design.

[Flow]

ELB –> XMPP Server –> ELB –> Casandra


                      ELB
                       |
XMPP#1        XMPP#2       XMPP#3       XMPP#4 
                       |
                      ELB
                       |
Casandra#1   Casandra#2  Casandra#3  Casandra#4

and change first design.

[Flow]

ELB –> XMPP Server –> HAProxy Master(Casandra Farm) –> Casandra


                      ELB
                       |
XMPP#1        XMPP#2      XMPP#3       XMPP#4 
                       |
-------------------------------------------------
keepalived Master(EC2) - keepalived Backup(EC2)
HAProxy#1                HAProxy#2      
-------------------------------------------------
                       |

Casandra#1   Casandra#2  Casandra#3  Casandra#4

this is second.

[Flow]

ELB –> HAProxy(XMPP Farm) –> XMPP Server –> HAProxy(Casandra Farm) –> Casanda

It's OK?


                      ELB
                       |
HAProxy#1   HAProxy#2   HAProxy#3   HAProxy#4
XMPP#1       XMPP#2     XMPP#3      XMPP#4 
                       |
Casandra#1   Casandra#2  Casandra#3  Casandra#4

Best Answer

If you're not intimately familiar with keepalived/haproxy, why not just use the AWS ELB?

As for running haproxy on your own (if you're deadset on doing that), I presume you're trying to bounce connections from XMPP server to Casandra 1-4. Why not just install haproxy on the XMPP box? You can configure haproxy like you normally would and then simply point XMPP at 127.0.0.1 - Then you've got 5 boxes in your setup instead of 7.
