Pakket: fair (0.5.3-4)

high availability load balancer for TCP connections

Fair is a system for implementing load balancers; it consists of two daemons: carrousel and transponder. Carrousel, which performs load balancing services, typically runs on a load balancer; transponder runs on the servers.

Fair understands network topologies where one node is reachable via more than one IP address; this allows not only the servers, but the network to be redundant as well. This distinguishes fair from other load balancers.
