One server at office (with static public IP) and 1 DO droplet, can DO Load balancer balance between the two?

Posted on September 6, 2021

Hi, Cloud Noob here. I find DO docs and QA as my life saver countless times.

I have alays been monolith until I had a server outage which costed 12 hours of downtime for my SaaS.

I run a webserver at my office which has a public static IP Address, and have started to create DO roplets. Can I use digital ocean’s load balancers, to safely route traffice between the two? For example, if my home office server fails, can it route it to a DO droplet easily?

I am only interested in HTTP routing. Needs to be HTTP/2 (due to GRPC).
