Please, "not running professional systems" and high availability don't exactly go together. With DRBD and Linux and Pacemaker your HA cluster will most likely be way cheaper than with our proprietary, vendor-lock-in counterparts, so please try to convince your boss to put some of those savings in good hardware. He or she will thank you afterwards for having made a better investment and still have saved a ton of cash in total.
