Abstract

For high availability and load balancing, as we face in the most distributed and dynamic computing environments of modern times, we require high availability and load balancing to guarantee smooth usage. It means availability, where availability refers to the fact that the system will be accessible and load balancing, where the resources are distributed effectively so that performance is optimized and no overload occurs. The aim of this article is to discuss the main approaches and technologies used to increase the availability of systems and load balancing in an IT environment today. We dive into standard architectures, scaling methods, traffic monitoring and distribution tools, and standards for high availability and distributed load across components. By analyzing the current research and real-life solutions, this article gives a complete solution for high availability and load balancing.
