you might use nginx as a loadbalancer?! it´s pretty easy and won´t break your bank for licenses...
we´re offering cheap VPS starting from ~44€ annually: https://iizyhost.com/cart/vps-general/?id=5
If server with nginx dies, then the system will stop working. Therefore, for fault tolerance I need loadbalancer from the provider or a floaring/failover IP
if loadbalancer from $provider dies, then system will stop working as well
sorry, we´re currently not able to offer floating IPs nor to offer 2nd location.
Good luck
I don't know of any in this price range.
If you really want to spend little...
You can do DNS load balancing.
By updating DNS entries dynamically according to the state of the server. (Combined with DNS round robin ?)
I don't know if there are any free solutions to do this, if not you can also make your own solution which shouldn't be too complicated.
It won't be perfect, but depending on your needs, it might work.
since you don't mention your max. load, if you have $50 budget, split them into 2-3 locations. and then use dns round robin like remy mentioned.
just don't put your nginx/haproxy in ihosttart, it won't be down every 2 minutes. other than that you'd want to raise your budget more
You can buy a couple slices and then ask for a floating IP that you can route via BGP for free
Works very well and has basically instant cut over.

Any guide document about floating ip and failover?
That's why I created this topic to find out who provides failover/floating ip or loadbalancer
We assign you an ASN and then you talk bgp with our route server. ECMP kicks in and load balances requests to all services announcing the floating ip.

We assign you a Hyper-Encoded Super-ASN (HE-S-ASN) and initiate interstellar BGP Plus (iBGP+) communications with our Quantum-Flux Router Server Thing Box (QFRSTB). Ultra-ECMP (U-ECMP) engages, triggering multi-dimensional load oscillations (MDLO) across the Trans-Phase Services Network (TPSN), effectively victimizing the intergalactic floating IP (IG-FIP).
