# yaml-language-server: $schema=../../schema/component.schema.json
# DigitalOcean Load Balancer: a "fully managed, highly available" balancer that spreads traffic
# over backend resources, regional or global ("Load Balancers"). "Load Balancer Features": HTTP,
# HTTPS, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 with SSL termination or passthrough, TCP and UDP on network load
# balancers, cookie-based sticky sessions as an option, and automatic health monitoring that
# removes and restores backends; the distribution algorithm spreads connections "as equally as
# possible" rather than round robin or least connections. "Load Balancer Limits": 40 forwarding
# rules, 10 backend Droplets added by name, 10,000 requests per second per node.
