Hi,

Apologies in advance for a fairly high level question which may not be the
norm of this users group.

I am trying to understand options and eventually choose a software load
balancer for a project I am working on. I am specifically interested in the
capabilities of two options - Apache HTTPD mod_proxy_balancer and Varnish (
https://www.varnish-cache.org/trac/wiki/LoadBalancing) from the following
perspectives:

1. Feature set supported like - session stickyness, failover from one node
to another in the load balancer farm etc
2. Performance/throughput
3. Stability of the solution
4. Ease of use or time required to setup for typical http(s) load balancing
use cases

I did try googling for information for a couple of hours but was not
successful in finding a good comparison. So I am looking at your experience
to get some pointers.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Kind Regards
Anurag
