Introduction In this article I will demonstrate how to configure software Load Balancer (LB) for two OpenAMs. OpenAM is a open source access management software provided by ForgeRock. Load balancing aims to optimize resource use, maximize throughput, minimize response time, and avoid overload of any single resource. If a one server is down, LB redirect all requests to others servers which are up. To simplify, I will configure LB, OpenAM 1 and OpenAM 2 on one virtual machine and OpenAMs will be configured with embedded data and config store. To read more…

This blog was sitting back half done as a Draft for several months. It was originally written based on ForgeRock OpenAM 10.x . OpenAM 11 has been released since then. I'm finally finding the time for finishing and publishing the article. It should apply for OpenAM 10.x as well as OpenAM 11.  (more…)
