Enabling load balancing and failover in Apache CXF

An excellent blog post at NoBlogDefFound.

Here’s the premise:

A while ago we’ve faced the requirement of load-balancing web services clients based on Apache CXF. Also the clients should automatically fail-over when some of the servers are down. To make it even worse, the list of servers target addresses was to be obtained from external service and updated at runtime. …If we only knew Apache CXF already supports all these features (almost) out of the box?

Well worth remembering for future projects.
