OpenSIPS as a load driven proxy
Using the new "Load-Balancer" module from OpenSIPS 1.5.0, you can now
implement traffic routing based on load. Shortly, when OpenSIPS routes
calls to a set of destinations, it is able to keep the load status (as
number of ongoing calls) of each destination and to choose to route to
the less loaded destination (at that moment). OpenSIPS is aware of the
capacity of each destination - it is preconfigured with the maximum load
accepted by the destinations. To be more precise, when routing, OpenSIPS
will consider the less loaded destination not the destination with the
smallest number of ongoing calls, but the destination with the largest
available slot.
The "load-balancing" functionality comes to enhance the "dispatcher"
one. The difference comes in having or not load information about the
destinations where you are routing to.
For more info, please refer to the tutorial I just uploaded on the web
