[Feature Request] Add Health Check to Load Balancing

[Cloudmersive]

For the load balancing feature to be useful in production, it really needs to have a configurable healthcheck:

• Health Check Period
• Health Check Endpoint
• Health Check Response Code

Service Discovery with Consul can helps you

But why not just add Health Check like other load balancers?

You are right.

Any hope of this? I found the following project which seems to provide some basic functionality for this but it seems to be alpha & not updated in a while: https://github.com/sjefvanleeuwen/ocelot-graceful-load-balancer

:ok: Will you personally contribute to develop and deliver this feature for Ocelot?

Sjef, Nice project! Are you still with Ocelot? I'm trying to figure out how to reuse it...
