Welcome to the fabio wiki!

fabio is the zero-conf HTTP router for your micro-services which just works.

Register your services in consul, provide a health check and fabio will start routing traffic to them. No configuration required. Deploying, upgrading and refactoring services has never been easier.

Have a look at the Quickstart to get started or dive into the documentation to learn more about fabio.

fabio was developed and is maintained by Frank Schroeder at eBay in Amsterdam to make deployment simpler and faster. It runs some of the largest websites in the Netherlands and Italy like marktplaats.nl and kijiji.it without a problem, delivering 15k req/sec but most of the time we forget it exists.

If you want to watch a presentation about fabio you can check out one of these:

• HashiConf EU Amsterdam, 15 Jun 2016 - Frank Schroeder - fabio
• HashiConf EU Amsterdam, 15 Jun 2016 - Kelsey Hightower - 12 Factor app

Feel free to help improving the documentation with deployment scenarios, real-world performance numbers and information that helps others.

Your help is appreciated :)

Thanks for using fabio
