docker containers on multiple servers #3

Open milesrichardson opened 10 years ago

milesrichardson commented 10 years ago

If haproxy is on one server, and I want to load balance containers on multiple servers, is this possible?

afaik of now, the docker network is local to the server it is running on. So you cannot communicate across servers, unless you do things like iptables forward/nat, but that introduces more problems than it solves :-) Maybe you want to take a look at etcd, i.e. http://coreos.com/docs/ section cluster management.
