What is Load Balancing and Why is Load balancing Important?

What is a load balancer?


A load balancer—or application delivery controller (ADC)— acts as the “traffic cop” distributing incoming

traffic efficiently between available servers. For example, if you have three computers, out of which two are hard at work while one is idle, the load balancer will redistribute the workload between the three computers to ensure that they deliver the fastest result. A load balancer can also provide a range of other services including:

Global server load balancing

Web application firewall

• Traffic management

• Proxying

• Application acceleration
