We have a web app loaded in Azure cloud services with two Worker Roles. My understanding is that Azure load balancing is simple in that it sends requests in a round robin fashion with a timeout of either one or five minutes...? What does the
load balancer look for to determine whether a worker is functioning or not?
How would one setup an intelligent health check that would disable an instance in the load balancer that had stopped responding? Also, is there any visibility into what state the load balancer is in or a way we can check the status of a worker within the load balancer?
Thanks for your help.
