The way I've been using it is setting up a cluster of tomcat
servers with some webapps, and another tomcat with this load
balancer webapp in front which users access.

I agree that this doesn't feel right. Interestingly, our charter doesn't
appear to preclude this kind of thing, and there is precedent,

Hi,
I've written a tiny webapp to function as a load balancer. It is a
rules-based balancer, rather than round-robyn or another policy. Rules can
be simple URL string matches, or more complex

nothing tomcat-specific), without

This, of course, begs the question of where handy little servlets
and filters should go.
there is precedent, albeit comatose, in the sandbox 'filters'

A simple way: the same rule will always redirect to the same server. So

you give an example in which this serves as a better load balancer than
other alternatives?

Howdy,
Rules based load balancer? Seems to me like this could need a load
balancer
of its own. Have you stress tested it? I'm not saying it can't be
useful
as a smart (policy based) redirector, but as a thin large scale load
balancer the Servlet lifecycle may be a little heavier than

OK. So that's one limitation compared to
Howdy,
Maybe your rules system could be factored out into a place where it
could
work with Filip's code. Don't know. Just encouraging you to talk with
Filip. :-)
I'll look into it ;)
I'm thinking that it might be a good idea to have a WebApp Commons,
either
in Commons or as a separate
