GoLB: The Lightweight, User-Friendly Load Balancer for Testing in Go

GoLB is a simple RoundRobin golang loadbalancer. It performs active cleaning and passive recovery for unhealthy backends.

Features:

• Cleans: Excludes servers marked as unhealthy from the round-robin rotation.
• Recovers: Periodically tries to recheck and reintegrate previously unhealthy servers back into service.
