Implement HA (Failover / Redundancy)

Open titansmc opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

Hi, Is there any way I can achieve HA for the load balancer? I would like to have two nodes (doesn't matter AA, or AP) and when a node goes down, the other keeps redirecting traffic.

Thanks.

Hello, @titansmc. For now only one possibility to use a some kind of HA - is to use consul as a place where configs stored. you can change configs in consul KV and initiate restart lb`s one by one with traffic switching on network layer.

we know that it is not a good way to do HA but for now it is a workaround . Now we are in progress of decision making how Gobetween ha will looks like.

Any updates or considerations for this? I have some ideas for workarounds such as possibly using VMware Esxi Fault Tolerance to have quickest failover possible.

Would keepalived do what you need while the devs work on other options?
