I think you misunderstood my requirements.
I have different clusters (i.e. bunch of machines) exposing a certain
number of web services. Each cluster has its own load balancer,
policies, etc.
What I want is add another layer of indirection. Requests will pass
through synapse and will be forwarded to the load balancers, according
to my own policies. I want to be able to dynamically add new clusters
at runtime.
The final scenario is:
Synapse------------>LB1--------> cluster 1
------------>LB2 -------> cluster 2
etc.
That is, clients send requests to the synapse machine, which will
forward them to a certain load balancer LBn, which in turn will
forward them to certain servers for execution.
If all you want to do is have the ability dynamically route, you can
easily use the DBLookup mediator, and lookup from a [dynamic] DB table
on the target destination for a request, and forward it accordingly.
This way, adding/removing rows to the table will result in your requirement
