Golang Round-Robin Load Balancer

This is a simple round-robin load balancer implemented in Golang. It distributes incoming HTTP requests evenly among a list of backend servers.

Usage

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/swarajkumarsingh/load-balancer.git

2. Build and run the load balancer:

go build main.go
./main

3. Send HTTP requests to the load balancer's endpoint (e.g., http://localhost:8080) to distribute them among your backend servers.

Configuration

You can configure the load balancer by modifying the main.go file. Here are the key points for configuration:

• Add or remove backend server URLs in the backendServers slice in the main function.
• You can change the port on which the load balancer listens by modifying the port variable in the main function.

Dependencies

The load balancer uses the following Go standard library packages:

• net/http: For creating the HTTP server.
• net/http/httputil: For creating reverse proxies.
• net/url: For parsing and handling URLs.
