Description

I am interested in the possibilities of cloning my back end to handle more server load. I have seen multiple references to having those capabilities, but nothing concrete on what the options are, and how to set them up.

Would this be something you could write up a doc sub-page under Website Backends? (https://api-umbrella.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin/website-backends.html)

An example of the configuration, description of how it will route requests between the multiple backends, round robin, any other strategies it supports....

Thanks
