Abstract:
   Rendezvous Hashing also known as Highest Random Weight (HRW) has been
   used in many load balancing applications where the central problem is
   how to map an object to as server such that the mapping is uniform
   and also minimally affected by the change in the server set.
   Recently, it has found use in DF election algorithms in the EVPN
   context and load balancing using DMZ.  This draft deals with the
   problem of achieving load balancing with minimal disruption when the
   servers have different weights.  It provides an algorithm to do so
   and also describes a few use-case scenarios where this algorithmic
   technique can apply.
