Load balancing
Web Services supports any third-party load balancer that supports sticky sessions. You should configure session affinity (sticky sessions) based on JSESSIONID. Once your load balancer is set up, you can use the following URL for health checks: http://<Web_Services_Host>:<Web_Services_Monitoring_Port>/actuator/health/readiness. Note: Web_Services_Monitoring_port is same as the Jetty port. Substitute the port value you configured for Jetty.
If you are configuring your solution to use Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer, you do not need to set up HTTPS between your load balancer and Web Services.
