    Sidekick would be the recommended route (https://github.com/minio/sidekick). Other load balancers will work but can struggle with high I/O workloads and Sidekick is also incredibly simple to set up so that is a plus as well. Outside of some sort of load balancer, some people elect for RRDNS but that doesn't take nodes out of the available pool so isn't used as often.
