You can use an advanced DNS service such as UltraDNS to globally load balance between multiple data centers.

We use them to route internet traffic to the geographically nearest data center, and to reroute traffic if a particular data center is experiencing problems.

@Sura: UltraDNS is the one I'm familiar with. I'm sure there are several other companies that offer a similar service. – Eric J. Aug 16 '11 at 7:00

You can just have two A records in DNS for your service pointing at different servers (or three, four, etc). That will give you simple load balancing for free!
