The semester has been closing in. Graduation is almost here and I've been extremely busy. I've launched a new project that hopes to push open source software into more widespread use in the load balancing department. The idea is to do a bunch of research on the benefits of load balancing in trying to keep availability during a DDoS attack. I've been working on a Python script to do the DDoS simulation as well as setting up a small test environment with the equipment I have on hand.
