Load Balancing

What is Load Balancing?

In the world of cloud computing, load balancing is the practice of splitting up workloads and computing properties. By doing this, load balancing allows companies to manage their application or workload demands in a more efficient manner since workloads are now distributed across a variety of computers, servers, and networks.

Load balancing helps maintain the availability of cloud-based applications for the end users, making it an essential part of cloud environment management. Furthermore, by preventing massive workloads from overwhelming servers, load balancing is very closely tied to a cloud’s ability to scale. Scalability is a common concern for organizations wishing to store large amounts of data in the cloud, as many companies - especially larger or rapidly growing ones - find their day-to-day storage requirements changing.
