I am recently expanding my network from a standalone server to loadbalancer with multiple nodes on them.
In the past i can put everything (Database, Redis, Application) all on the same server and it works fine. Coding was easy, life was easy.
But now switching over to load balancing, i have no idea where to run my socket.js script on which port. Have anyone done this before?
It's recommended to use port 80 (http) or 443 (https) in order to pass through (unmodern) firewall configs.
I'm running a socket.io script handling messaging through redis on a separate server. The servers running the script could of course also be load balanced.
