A load balancing policy primary job is to pick a target server given only the

Sub-Channels

A sub-channel provides a connection to a server for a client channel. It has a

A sub-channel provides a connection to a server for a client channel. It has a
connectivity state like a regular channel, and so can be connected or
disconnected. This connectivity state can be used to inform load balancing
decisions (for example, by avoiding disconnected backends).
Configured sub-channels are fully setup to participate in the grpc data plane.
Their behavior is specified by a set of grpc channel filters defined at their
construction. To customize this behavior, resolvers build grpc_subchannel_factory
objects, which use the decorator pattern to customize construction arguments for
concrete grpc_subchannel instances.
