Accepted Answer:
Hi there @wenuka,
Indeed having a load balancer with 1 Droplet only would not really add much of a benefit to your setup.

Accepted Answer:
This sounds like it would be configurable in a domain managed by DO. Just using the subdomain routing and setting your wildcard to your DOKS LB and your domain to the IP you mentioned.
Hope this helps!
