Which approach should be recommended when designing a production topology for WebSphere application servers providing high availability and failover capabilities?

  1. Create a design using multiple machines that handle the full production load, enabling the use

  2. Utilize load balancers between the Web servers and the application servers to provide failover

  3. Place the Authentication servers outside of the intrusion firewall with the Web servers, since

  4. Use the largest processor engines and least number of physical machines for the application

A Correct answer
Explanation

The best practice for high availability is using multiple machines each capable of handling the full production load, allowing for failover when one machine fails. Load balancers alone between web and app servers don't provide complete HA. Authentication servers should be behind firewalls, not outside. Using fewer, larger machines creates a single point of failure.
