Best practice - Loadbalancer

[gsmith]

Hello,

I have seen most community members us Nginx.

Nginx Config Examples

For those of you who use Nginx as a reverse proxy or load balancer, you may find these configuration files useful: Here’s the example main nginx config I use for load balancing tcp/udp connections:

nginx.conf

user nginx; worker_processes 4; error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn; pid /var/run/nginx.pid; events { worker_connections 1024; } http { include /etc/nginx/mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream; log_format main '$remote_addr - $r…

As for load balancers, We have set Nginx in front of Graylog Web UI for that connection. As for Data/Metadata redundancy this would be configured within Elasticsearch or MongoDb.

I have used my enterprise firewall as a load balancer this would depended on how you configured you environment.

hope that helps
