It's possible to have a load balancer in Railway?
Hello, I was wondering if It's possible to have a load balancer in Railway?
I want to add webhook processors in my N8N instance. Based on n8n documentation https://docs.n8n.io/hosting/scaling/queue-mode/#webhook-processors
Each webhook is similar to a worker, but instead of completing the task, it receives the data and puts it in the queue so a worker can picks it up.
as per n8n documentation, by using webhook processors you require a load balancer, so I'm not sure if this is something doable right now in railway or I have to externalise the load balancer thing to AWS or similar product.
Thanks.

Deploy N8N (w/ webhook processors) on Railway
A powerful workflow automation tool for technical people
Will work on deploy, only problem right now is that there'll need to be minor manual work as far as url config. I could only set one "WEBHOOK_URL" env variable (there is no test url variable), and the worker only handles production webhooks, so you'll need to replace the webhook processor url with your primary service url if testing webhooks. Otherwise, you can set the "WEBHOOK_URL" env variable to your primary service url and use a proxied DNS host (ex. Cloudflare) rule to redirect the wildcard (/webhook/*) to your webhook processor url (but possibly sacrafice the speed gained when using the webhook processor anyways, not sure).
