You have 2 data nodes. The API/MySQL nodes (the applications) will connect
in a round robin way to the data nodes. You actually don't have to do
anything in regards to 'load balancing' there. This is the whole point of
Cluster where you can have 1 node failing, the other will continue working
and keep the data, the cluster up.
Where you could load-balance is when you have multiple MySQL servers for
example. Then you use something like LVS to use a round robin method to
connect to the MySQL servers.
Hope this helps.
