Hey Brian, I have been investigating deploying a very similar stack to what you guys are using now. How are you handling onsite load balancing? Is it a simple round robin type load balancer at the router level?

Also is Highlander open source? I don't see a link to it in the article.

We will open source highlander eventually, but it’s not quite there yet.

We use a VIP that the NUCs share... ie; one of the three will always have a VIP, and if it dies another NUC grabs it. This is a poor man’s load balancer in that sense, because we only have the NUC hardware onsite;
