This spike is focused on three main categories:

1. Development of "multiple upstream" features, including:
   • Supporting Load Balancing of upstream servers
   • Supporting Health Checks of upstream servers
   • Supporting Service Discovery of upstream servers
2. Developer and Operator Quality of Life features, including:
   • Supporting basic static HTML file serving
   • Supporting semi-dynamic observability endpoints, e.g. for Prometheus polling
   • Support for hot-reloading of configuration
   • CI for build and test checks on pull requests
3. Development of initial Robustness features, including:
   • Rate limiting of connections and/or requests
   • CIDR/API range-based filtering for rejecting connections

This work is scheduled to begin at the end of May, and continue through the end of July.
