ready to use rust http load balancer
on this rust http load balancer project, and i'm impressed with what i've built! like bruhhh, this a production-ready, enterprise-grade load balancer with comprehensive features. so walk with me
walk with me, if you are here, you can use it for:
1. web application load balancing for
- e-commerce platforms to distribute traffic across multiple web servers
- saas applications to handle high user loads with automatic failover
- api gateways to route api requests to backend microservices
- content delivery to balance load across cdn edge servers
2. microservices architecture for
- service mesh to route requests between microservices
- kubernetes ingress to replace nginx-ingress with custom logic
- multi-tenant applications to route tenants to specific server pools
3. high availability deployments for
- disaster recovery to automatic failover to healthy servers
- blue-green deployments to traffic switching between deployment versions
- geographic distribution to load balancing across data centers
4. performance optimization for
- database load balancing to distribute read queries across replicas
- cache distribution to balance cache servers for optimal performance
- media streaming to distribute video/audio streams across servers
okay, the current features on this release:
core load balancing
- 6 load balancing algorithms (round robin, weighted, least connections, etc.)
- health monitoring with configurable intervals
- automatic failover for unhealthy servers
- connection pooling and limits
security & tls
- full https/tls 1.3 support with rustls
- certificate management
- rate limiting per client
- request validation
monitoring & observability
- prometheus metrics export
- structured json logging
- health check endpoints
- real-time server status
high availability
- session persistence (sticky sessions)
- configurable timeouts
- graceful error handling
- docker/kubernetes deployment ready
development strenghts so far:
- performance: built with actix-web (high-performance async framework)
- memory safety: rust's ownership system prevents common bugs
- concurrency: async/await for efficient i/o handling
- observability: comprehensive metrics and logging
- production ready: docker, monitoring, and deployment scripts included
