Load Balancing

A load balancer is a system that sits between clients and servers and distributes incoming traffic across multiple backend servers. Ensuring no single server bears too much of demand and evenly spreading the load, it improves the responsiveness and availability of applications or websites for the user.

In selecting the appropriate load balancer type, it’s essential to consider factors such as application traffic patterns, scalability requirements, and security considerations.
