Hi guys,

I'm developing a website which requires me to use 2 hosts and one domain name. I never encounter this kind of problem before.

Here's the story, i'm developing a web bsed reporting system application. Like other application, there are two main parts. The input application and the output for the user. These two application will be placed in different host. One host for the input and one host for the output.

The question is... Is it possible to do this kind of thing ? If it'spossible, how can i do it ?

Thank you in advance...

Why are you putting them on different hosts?

Options:

Use a subdomain for the reporting system.
Use rewrite rules to map the two machines.
Consider something like HeartBeat High-availability middleware on Linux, Part 1: Heartbeat and Apache Web server
Break the system up with the database on one machine and the web interfaces on another.

For the initial deployment, I recommend building it on one host, with the understanding it may be broken up for two servers in the future. Most of the time you only need one server.

You can use a subdomain for the 2nd host.
