Load Balancing & Service Discovery

For Load Balancing Purpose the choice of standard tool like HAProxy is taken into consideration. HAProxy or High Availability Proxy is an open source software TCP/HTTP Load Balancer and proxying solution. It is used to improve the performance and reliability of a server environment by distributing the workload across multiple servers.

For building Service Discovery capabilities, the choice of HashiCorp's Consul system is taken into consideration. For running the experiments, a system of 1 server and 2 agents is built on ec2 platforms. The server is currently active at ec2-52-14-33-15.
