A sample implementation how the internals of a load balancer looks like. Inspired from the reverseproxy logic of the Go standard library.

PS: This is not a production-ready load balancer, but rather a learning project to understand how load balancing works.

1. Clone the repository:

https://github.com/akp111/lodbal.git
cd loadbal

2. Install the dependencies:

go mod tidy

3. Start the backend servers:

./start_dummy_servers.sh

3. Run the load balancer:

go run main.go

4. Test the load balancer:

curl -v http://localhost:8080
