```nginx
192+
http {
193+
...
194+
195+
# Define a group of API servers that nginx can use
196+
upstream api {
197+
server localhost:8081;
198+
}
199+
200+
...
201+
202+
proxy_pass http://api/;
203+
204+
...
205+
}
206+
```
207+
208+
Add alternatives:
209+
210+
```nginx
211+
server localhost:8083;
212+
server localhost:8084;
213+
```
214+
215+
Run them:
216+
217+
```console
218+
> DATABASE_URL='postgres://localhost:5432/go-server-database' go run ./cmd/api-server --port 8083
219+
> DATABASE_URL='postgres://localhost:5432/go-server-database' go run ./cmd/api-server --port 8084
220+
```
221+
222+
Run a small `ab` (`ab -n 10 -c 10 "http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/images.json"`) and observe the server logs: the requests are distributed between the servers.
223+
224+
Turn off one of the servers and run another small `ab`: `ab -n 10 -c 10 "http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/images.json"`
225+
226+
Look at the `nginx` logs:
227+
228+

Note `upstream server temporarily disabled while connecting to upstream` — it is automatically spotting this and disabling the server.
