OK agreed with you, but above loadbalancer config doesn't solve problem
of horizontal scaling and load balancing.
In other words, is it possible to achieve a horizontally scalable, highly
available and load balanced setup.
You set up two pools in the load balancer
Pool 1 -> For apps that only do reads, and handles load distribution in
whatever method you feel best. Example DNS: ldap.example.com
Pool 2 -> For apps that write directly. Sticky session to a single
provider unless it goes offline. Example DNS: ldap-provider.example.com
