Load Balancing

Load Balancing is the process of managing and distributing network traffic across multiple servers to optimize performance, increase availability, and prevent any single server from becoming a bottleneck.

This ensures that applications can handle high traffic volumes without performance degradation or downtime, leading to a more resilient and scalable infrastructure.

Why is Load Balancing Useful?

  • Distributes traffic evenly, preventing any one server from being overworked, which keeps response times low.
  • Easily scales with traffic by adding more servers to the load balancer without affecting the user experience.
  • Increases the fault tolerance of your applications by managing server failures and rerouting traffic automatically.

ProsperTip

Regularly monitor the performance of your load balancer and adjust configurations as needed to ensure optimal traffic distribution and resource utilization. This helps in maintaining high availability and performance as your traffic patterns change.
