Steem Load Balancer Survives When a Node is Down
A few days ago, the node api.justyy.com went down. However, I noticed that the Steem Load Balancer Node (https://api2.steemyy.com) running on Cloudflare continued to function normally, automatically rerouting traffic to api.steemit.com.
This incident perfectly demonstrates the purpose of the load balancer — it significantly enhances service availability.
