The whole point of things like reverse proxies or LBs (in addition to proper load balancing) are to provide high availability during rollouts, as well as providing a separation of concerns.
I recommend keeping your app focused on what it does best and employ a load balancer or reverse proxy to do what it does best. Check out HAProxy.

I want a solution that works on TCP services generally and on the local network, not having to rely on a second thing like a load balancer or a broker. -- Pedro On Saturday, 6 de April de 2013 at 12:00, greelgorke wrote: https://github.com/LearnBoost/up does something you need roughly. i'm building a lib based on it exactly for your purpose, but's in an early state yet.

I want to be able to do 0-downtime master process restart also, which the core cluster module doesn't let me do easily (I'd have to pass the server handle around explicitly and not use the cluster worker server.listen() goodness). Also, I don't want a reverse-proxy or a command-line solution, and would like to keep very close to the cluster API. Do you know of any NPM module that implements this?
