        Framework for client-side load-balancing for inter-process
        communication between cloud services.
        
        It is inspired in large part by Netflix's
        `Ribbon <https://github.com/Netflix/ribbon>`_ for java.
        
        How to Use
        ---------------
        In its most basic form, you can create a `ballast.Service` with a static list of servers:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            >>> import ballast
            >>> my_service = ballast.Service(['127.0.0.1', '127.0.0.2'])
        
        Now, just use it as you would use the `requests <http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/quickstart/#make-a-request>`_
        package:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            >>> response = my_service.get('/v1/path/to/resource')
            <Response[200]>
        
        **NOTE:** at this point in time, only the basic api features from the
        `requests <http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/quickstart/#make-a-request>`_ package are supported.
