What is a Load Balancer?

Load balancing is critical to the maintenance of any highly demand digital experiences, website, application, databases, other compute resources. Proper utilization of a load balancer can prevent application failure, improve performance and availability by disturbing traffic.

In this lightboard video, Bradley Knapp with IBM explains how load balancers work and some different traffic distribution model options.

Although, I know about the Load Balancer.
However, it was nice to hear a simple and concise explanation about it in this video. Thank you, sir!

We supposed that one server can not handle 10000 clients, but how one load balancer can? Video is good btw:)

This video was so helpful im currently studying for the AWS SAA exam and wanted to get my details on this concept and this video was perfectly constructed.

Awesome! Could you create a vid to discuss the differences between L4 and L7 load balancing?

Note to self:
Round Robin Algo is inefficient, if theres 3 server and each server has 3 users... server2 and server3 users is done using the app while server1 users are still using it, server2 and server3 is vacant (which should not be)
