Abstract
Most of the universities around the world are offering online distance learning programs. A framework is required that can handle huge amount of network traffic at the servers and also cater for the autonomous, robust, intelligent load balancing and fault tolerance. In order to handle large number1 of transactions at the server, high performance server architecture is required. The proposed framework is tested using a virtual online university that can handle huge amount of user requests. With the availability of high bandwidth and low cost hardware, the optimum performance can be achieved easily. The frame work is tested under heavy network traffic and proved to robust, scalable and reliable approach.
