问题
I have made a game where clients connect to a central server with TCP connection. In the first 6 bytes I send the version number "00.00.01" of the client protocol. Based on this version I want to route/proxy the tcp connection to different servers where different version of the game will be running.
Basically client-1 with version 00.00.01 should connect to Server-1 And client 2 with version 00.00.02 should connect to Server-2
For load balancing I checked HAProxy lua support but couldn't find the solution. Does this kind of solution exist in NginX?
What are the best practices around?
回答1:
Why not have the game itself know which hostname to connect to? Then you can use DNS and virtual hosting to manage which physical machine that ends up mapping to.
