A fancy load balancer for light weight devices

Project description

heiko

Documentation Status Code style: black

heiko is a lightweight load balancer that uses SSH to manage servers running on low-end hardware such as Raspberry Pis or even mobile phones.

The name heiko is derived from the Japanese term for equilibrium.

heiko uses a smart scheduler to run a program on one node from a set of nodes. It is very robust to node failures and switches to a different node as soon as the current node fails. The node to run is intelligently selected based on multiple factors such as CPU power, memory capacity, free memory, current CPU load, past failures and others.
