Question

How to setup load balancer for different subdomains?

I have my application installed on two subdomains:

a.my-site.com and b.my-site.com.

The applications that I want the load balancer to work for runs on port 9650, however I have setup a reverse proxy on both droplets to hide the port.

How do I let my load balancer alternate between a.my-site.com and b.my-site.com?
