What is load balancing and what algorithms are used?
Correct! Well done.
Incorrect.
The correct answer is B) Distributing network traffic across multiple servers using algorithms like round-robin, least connections, or IP hash to improve availability and performance
B
Correct Answer
Distributing network traffic across multiple servers using algorithms like round-robin, least connections, or IP hash to improve availability and performance
Explanation
Load balancers (L4: transport layer, L7: application layer) distribute requests. Round-robin (simple), least connections (considers active load), IP hash (session persistence), weighted (server capacity differences).
