I'm trying to setup a live hosted Windows Service Bus (on-premise not Azure) with 3 Farm servers plus separate DB.
The performance considerations doc (here) talks about using EnableRedirect, but then says "Also note that the redirect feature is not compatible with some load balancers."
eg. It suggests I do :
MessagingFactorySettings factorySettings = new MessagingFactorySettings(); factorySettings.NetMessagingTransportSettings.EnableRedirect = true;
But why would I want to use a load balancer? Surely I should be pointing my connections at the FQDN and letting the Service Bus Gateway handle all the balancing?
I guess my question boils down to this : If I have three farm servers do they all need a public IP address? Then I guess I have my FQDN pointing at one of these IPs and I let Service Bus take care of the rest, without any need for a load balancer?
