Does anyone use the load balancer feature of Apache httpd on Windows?

I use another load balancer on Windows, but we keep having a switch issue (six dollar figure cost to replace) and I have to reboot them both when the switch goes belly up. Kind of wondering if Apache might work better...

Well, the one I use turns out the vendor does not support it on Windows 2016. Getting a new VM could take a month or more...

The software load balancer vendor does not support the specific version of Windows we have it installed on. They actually say to stop using Windows and switch to Linux.

Apache from here runs fine on Windows.

You can also use apache on Linux. It runs fine.

No fun for the default distro installation? Well I made my own installer https://github.com/JBlond/debian_build_apache24
