Description

Currently, Cellar doesn't use Pax Web or HTTP service.

Cellar could listen for the HTTP service registered, and register on the cluster a map like:

[Service URI] [Actual Nodes]
[/foo] [hostA:5701, hostB:5701]
[/bar] [hostB:5701, hostC:5701]

Thanks to that, any node can act as a load balancer to the other nodes: it can get the HTTP request, proxy it to the actual target node, and return the HTTP response.
