Description: Load balance and fail over utility for TCP based services

 Crossroads is an open source load balance and fail over utility
 for TCP based services. It is a daemon running in user space,
 and features extensive configurability, polling of back ends
 using 'wakeup calls', detailed status reporting, 'hooks' for
 special actions when backend calls fail, and much more.
 
 Crossroads is service-independent: it is usable for HTTP(S),
 SSH, SMTP, DNS, etc. In the case of HTTP balancing, Crossroads
 can provide 'session stickiness' for back end processes that
 need sessions, but aren't session-aware of other back ends.
