Fantail

Worker-aware HTTP load balancing with a global admission queue.

Fantail routes each request to a worker which is ready to process it. It separates the short-lived request-processing reservation from the potentially longer response exchange, so another request can begin after response headers arrive while the previous response body is still streaming.

Usage

Please see the project documentation for more details.

• Getting Started - This guide explains how to run Fantail and publish HTTP worker endpoints.
