How to use web farm framework and octopus deployment


I have done a setup for automation deployment using team-city and octopus. it is successfully deploying to required servers but I need to load balance as well. Any idea how can I combine them together. Or any other best option for performing load balancing with octopus.


Solution

  • Octopus can tie into your load balancing solution, but it will not perform load balancing.

    Most enterprise applications use a hardware network load balancing appliance. For example F5's Big-IP product line. You can also create a software solution like John Hoerr suggested.

    Once you have a solution in place you can then script Octopus to automate configuring your load balancer in a way that meets you business needs.
