I have always wanted a highly available setup for my personal websites. I could have used off-the-shelf hosting solutions or hosted my sites in an AWS S3 bucket. I have used technologies like BGP, LVS/IPVS, ldirectord, Pacemaker, heartbeat, heartbeat2, Corosync, keepalived, DRBD, and commercial F5 Load Balancers for high availability at work.
-But still, my personal sites were never highly available. All those technologies are great for professional use, but I was looking for something much more straightforward for my personal space—something as KISS (keep it simple and stupid) as possible.
+But still, my personal sites were never highly available. All those technologies are great for professional use, but I was looking for something much more straightforward for my personal space - something as KISS (keep it simple and stupid) as possible.
It would be fine if my personal website wasn't highly available, but the geek in me wants it anyway.

## My auto-failover requirements
* Be OpenBSD-based (I prefer OpenBSD because of the cleanliness and good documentation) and rely on as few external packages as possible.
-* Don't rely on the hottest and newest tech (don't want to migrate everything to a new and fancier technology next month).
+* Don't rely on the hottest and newest tech (don't want to migrate everything to a new and fancier technology next month already).
* It should be reasonably cheap. I want to avoid paying a premium for floating IPs or fancy Elastic Load Balancers.
* It should be geo-redundant.
* It's fine if my sites aren't reachable for five or ten minutes every other month. Due to their static nature, I don't care if there's a split-brain scenario where some requests reach one server and other requests reach another server.
