The basics
What is a Load Balancer?
A Load Balancer is a system that distributes incoming network or application traffic across multiple servers. This ensures no single server bears too much demand, enhancing application availability and responsiveness.
By efficiently managing traffic, Load Balancers prevent server overloads, reduce latency, and ensure high availability, making them essential for modern web applications and services.
Redundancy and uptime: if one server drops, the traffic reroutes automatically. Better performance: no single server becomes a bottleneck. Built-in smart features: SSL offload, HTTP/3 support and dynamic caching.
