What do you do for a living??




Load Balancer its a gatekeeper that is btw users and servers and distributes incoming requests so no single servers go overloaded it is used bc one server cant handle all the load for example if there are 500 user on the server is fine.if thee re are 1000 user on the server it will become slow and 10000 user the server may crash due to overload on the server. so load balancer helps us handle more users by prevent server load and improve the performance and also increase availability problems without a load balancer When only one server handles all requests any crash or network issue then it will make the entire application go down and A single server has limited capacity As the number of users requests increases, the server can become overloaded and leading to slow response times. With load balancer first All user requests are received by the load balancer instead of going directly to a server then .The load balancer regularly checks which servers are working properly and available to handle requests then.Requests are forwarded to servers based on factors like current load response time and availability ensuring no single server is overloaded and it also helps If a server fails or the server is not responsive the load balancer stops sending traffic to it and redirects requests to healthy servers. By evenly distributing traffic and using only healthy servers load balancing improves performance and reduces response delays. load balancer is used for scalability add more servers without changing the client . high availability like if one server crashes ,traffic goes to others. it makes better performaces by making requests spreads Load balancers . optimize resource utilization, ensuring efficient use of server capacity and preventing bottlenecks.Load balancers often monitor the health of servers, directing traffic away from servers experiencing issues or downtime. benefits of using a load balancer scalability easily add more servers without changing the client its also high availability If one server crashes traffic automatically goes to others and better performance !!!! Basic question Can a load balancer itself fail???




As a developer, have you ever wondered: Google Maps tells you there's traffic ahead in real time There are no sensors on the road So how does it know?

Most companies don’t need more security tools. They need to understand the ones they already have.
