public class BestAvailableRule
extends ClientConfigEnabledRoundRobinRule

A rule that skips servers with "tripped" circuit breaker and picks the server with lowest concurrent requests.

This rule should typically work with ServerListSubsetFilter which puts a limit on the servers that is visible to the rule. This ensure that it only needs to find the minimal concurrent requests among a small number of servers. Also, each client will get a random list of servers which avoids the problem that one server with the lowest concurrent requests is chosen by a large number of clients and immediately gets overwhelmed.
