Large scale Rails deployments

Hi,
I’m currently helping out with a large scale rails application
deployment. The idea is to have an apache 2.2 with mod_proxy serving out
to a farm of mongrels distributed on N number of servers.
We’ll also have some Starfish nodes doing processor intensive tasks
distributed on N number of servers as well.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience of managing and montitoring
these types of deployments and how they have any tips/advice.

Cheers

Jonathan
