You need to be more specific about your requirements. There are basic
IP-based load balancers such as Piranha, and more advanced layer 7
balancers such as HAproxy. They all have benefits and drawbacks, so
without any further requirements, your question cannot be meaningfully
answered.
What kind of traffic are you balancing? If HTTP, then do you also
need HTTPS support? What about session affinity? What kind of
backend application are you using, and will it support balancing as
well?
