Load balancing uses multiple hardware devices to make tasks more efficient. Also, using load balancing increases system speed
The load load balancing solution is recommeneded on linux based servers although not necessary it will improve load performace.
If you are running a Linux web server there is LVS. LVS is an open-source load balancer.
You should switch if there is a Failover Script for Dual. You can read more at blog.taragana.com/.../how-to-load-balancing-failover-with-dual-multi-wan-adsl-cable-connections-on-linux.
a load balancing router distributes processes and communication activity evenely across a computer network so that one single device isn't overused. busy websites such as facebook use a load balancing router
Load balancing hardware is a computer method which distributes workload across multiple computers and peripherals. Load balancing increases the amount of available bandwidth which allows for increased internet speed.
If you're running Linux, you can get it for free. Check it out: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/load-balancer-open-source-software.html
There is an excellent PDF breakdown of server load balancing at [url]http://www.radharc.com/whitepapers/Server_Load_Balancing.pdf[/url]. Also, check out the white paper associated with this Linux article: [url]http://www.linux-mag.com/id/4136[/url]. There is a good website for server load balancing. The address is http://content.websitegear.com/article/load_balance.htm. It offers a good introduction to server load balancing.
Load balancing on a linux server, and load balancing in general generally only improves webpage loading performance during peak demand periods of usage. Once a linux server is at 100% utilization, subsequent web requests will either get queued up or result in a timeout , resulting in a perceptible delay to the end user in terms of webpage load up. Load balancing servers are designed to optimally determine and route requests to the least utilized server out of a group of servers. This will result in a higher probability of experiencing no additional delay in terms of loading the webpage up, leading to an impression that the speed has been "increased", due to a prior bad experience when significant delays were encountered. So the key is that as long as the linux server is not overloaded and the network itself is not experiencing bottleneck problems, the fastest possible webpage load speed will always remain the same.
There's no such thing as "international" load balancing. Load balancing is a computer solution that makes sure one machine in a cluster isn't being hammered by work requests rather than them being spread across the cluster.
The purpose of Web server load balancing is to reduce all the load on a single machine. If such a great deal of load is put on just a single computer, it will fail, resulting in server down situation. It is usually done using a Multi-layer Switch.
The only way you can load Linux with XP is if you are using a shell program, or you have partitioned your hard drive into multiple partitions and you are making a dual boot machine. That's not something I suggest for the computer illiterate.
There are a variety of reasons for a computer service not loading a page. One of these reasons could be because the application balancing is off.
