Introduction

It’s a fact of life server don’t run forever. Hardware components can fail. Software can crash. Systems are shutdown for upgrades and maintenance. Whatever the reason, when a server goes down, the applications and the business process that depend on those applications stop. That’s why companies everywhere are turning to high availability clusters allow the application and business process to resume operation quickly despite the failure of a server and ensure business is not interrupted.

What is High Availability Cluster?

High Availability clusters are simple in principle. Two or more servers are joined or clustered together to back each other up. If the primary server goes down, the clustering system restart the application on one of the other server in the cluster, allowing the business to continue operating normally. The servers are connected using a network or serial interface so they can communicate with each other. With this kind of clustering there is no need to modify the application.

Uses of High Availability Cluster

• HA clusters are often used for critical databases• File sharing on a network• Business applications• Customer services such as electronic

commerce websites.

What is Load Balancing?

Load balancing is a computer networking method for distributing workloads

across multiple computers or a computer cluster, network links, central

processing units, disk drives, or other resources. Successful load balancing

optimizes resource use, maximizes throughput, minimizes response time, and

avoids overload. Using multiple components with load balancing instead of a

single component may increase reliability through redundancy. Load

balancing is usually provided by dedicated software or hardware, such as

a multilayer switch or a Domain Name System server Process.

Types of Load Balancing

There are two types of load balancing available in the market that is:•Hardware– Example: Cisco, Barracuda, Loadbalancer,

ClusterScale etc.

•Software– Example: LVS, HAproxy, Varnish, Nginx,

Ultramonkey etc.

Uses of Load Balancer

• Balancing the load of one or more local servers

• Balancing load across globally-distributed servers

• Fault tolerance• Distributed the workload

Load Balancing Technique

There are many kinds of load balancing method such as.1.Round-Robin2.Weighted Round-Robin3.Least-Connection4.Weighted Least-ConnectionI will apply Round-Robin algorithm because it will utilize maximum resource for load Balancing.
