Sorry jumping into the discussion. What is a best way to monitor Riak node health? Most loadbalancer uses HTTP request to check if a node is alive.
Currently we use Riak Java client to load balance requests to Riak. The issue is if a node gets removed or added all Java servers need to update configuration to reflect the changes. It’s kinda annoying for operation team. So we started thinking about putting LB between Riak cluster and Java clients. Thank you, Konstantin.
