[jetty-users] WebSocket Loadbalancer with TLS1.2

[Uday Subbarayan <uday.subbarayan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

    Greetings!

As we know, there is no websocket loadbalancer today which can support cookie-based stickiness with TLS 1.2. The closest solution is putting HAProxy behind ELB.

Here is an article describing the problem:

https://medium.com/@Philmod/load-balancing-websockets-on-ec2-1da94584a5e9

I faced this problem myself! As the saying goes, "necessity is the mother of all innovation", we build a WebSocket loadbalancer from ground-up in C++ with Event Loop in Linux 3.x Kernel.

Today:

Internet --> ELB --> HAProxy --> WebServer

Tomorrow(with our product):

Internet --> API Proxy ---> WebServer

*Less Network hop and More Speed!

We support both WebSocket and REST APIs. It's 100% software and runs on any cloud! We are looking for few beta testers. If you are interested in testing our product, pl respond back to me. 

Thanks,
