Load-balancers are a key component in any modern data-center. Not only are they necessary in order to deliver service to a large number of clients, their properties and performance largely impact the user experience as well as the infrastructure utilization efficiency. This project consists in building an Open-Source Linux Kernel server agent module for a next-generation high-performance load-balancer.
