[jira] [Created] (KNOX-51) Smart load balancing among gateway cluster intances

Kevin Minder created KNOX-51:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Smart load balancing among gateway cluster intances
                 Key: KNOX-51
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-51
             Project: Apache Knox
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Server
            Reporter: Kevin Minder


>From BUG-4329
In support of horizontal scalability each gateway instance should be able to redirect incoming requests to underutilized instances. This will require that all instances have some notion of the load that all other cluster members are under at any given time. The suggestion has been made by Eric that ZooKeeper could be used for this. Note the preference here is that any solution not be dependent upon an external load balancer like BigIP or mod_proxy, etc.
