Worker

The worker package implements a simple load balancing algorithm based on the master-worker scheme. In this algorithm, the workload is distributed among multiple worker processes by a single manager process.

Overview

The diagram below shows the available components and how they relate to each other:

Worker components

Components

Click the name of a component to see its description.

Pool

Distributes the workload among registered pool workers.

PoolWorker

Represents a worker on the manager side. Uses a client to communicate with the worker.

Client

Sends requests to a server and receives responses from it. Used on the manager side.

Server

Receives requests from a client and sends back responses. Used on the worker side.

Loop

Represents the processing loop of a worker. Uses a server to communicate with a manager.

Communication

Although the communication between a worker and a manager is protocol-independent, the package comes with a default implementation based on the WebSocket protocol. You can find it in the websocket.go file.

Backoff algorithm

The package includes an implementation of the exponential backoff algorithm. This mechanism can be used to decrease the rate of requests in case of repeated failures. You can find the implementation of the algorithm in the backoff.go file.
