Hi Airavata Developers, As a part of the ongoing Advanced Science Gateway Architectures course at IU, we are working on load balancing the UI Portal. This mail chain is intended to be used for the same. We briefly discussed 3 load balancing technologies in this weeks classroom session - 1. HAProxy 2. NGINX 3. HAProxy with Consul / Consul-template The topic is open for discussion. The following is the Github link to the Portal which will be used - https://github.com/airavata-courses/spring17-laravel-portal Thanks & Regards, Ameya Advankar Hello Ameya, One requirement I have is programmatic control over which instances are being used by a load balancer. The main use case I have in mind is deploying updated code. Let’s say there are two portal instances, A and B, that are being load balanced. I would like to create a deploy script that takes A out of the load balancer, then updates the code deployed to A, and then enable A in the load balancer again. And then do the same thing with B. Which of these load balancing technologies support this sort of programmatic control? Thanks, Marcus
