If you ask someone to double a number, they'll come back to you and tell you twice the number you gave them - give the "3" and they'll say "6".

Gone are the days of needing to build special modules such as Jserv, jk, jk2 and warp to have httpd act as a "front" to a Java (Tomcat) serv ....
Load Balancing Algorithms - the standard offerings
How do you share out the requests when you're load balancing? The computer (or other device) that's sharing out the load needs to make a decision as to where it should forward each request, and there are a number of different option commonly avail ....

Now here's an odd morning for you; in my recently elected role of President of Melksham Chamber of Commerce and Industry, I was invited to attend - "in chains" no less - the opening of the new Lidl store that re-extends the Town Centre across the river Avon. And indeed I was very happy to do so; Me ....
From my inbox
Q: I need to learn to program in the C language, but have never programmed before. Can you help me?
And my outbox (modified to make the answer generally applicable)

The question of "Training Passports", where a delegate can take a number of different courses over a period of time, isn't a new one to me ... but it really wasn't appropriate for us to offer such a product in our early days.
