Layer-7 HTTP(S) load balancing operates at the highest level of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. It distributes incoming web traffic across multiple servers based on the content of the HTTP/HTTPS request. This makes it more sophisticated than lower-level load balancers, as it und...
Also, continuous strain on servers can cause permanent hardware damage, meaning downtime might lead to hardware repair or replacement costs (in addition to other downtime-related revenue losses). Load balancing helps to mitigate the likelihood of these issues, acting as a gatekeeper for incoming ...
CLB eliminates the need to invest in additional load balancing hardware and devote time to tedious OPS work, saving you up to 99% of hardware and labor costs. CLB is billed on a pay-as-you-go basis, meaning you only pay for what you use. You can create and terminate CLB instances at...
It is a mechanism that can identify client-server affinity and guarantee that associated access requests will be allocated to the same server during load balancing. When is session persistence needed? First, we need to understand some concepts: connection, session and their differences. Note that ...
In cloud computing environment tasks are allocated among virtual machines (VMs) having different length, starting time and execution time. Therefore, balancing these loads among VM is a key factor. Load balancing has to be carried out in such a manner that all VMs should have balanced to achiev...
On the other hand, it is known that the long flows require high goodput, meaning that the load balancing scheme should help them travel through as many parallel paths as possible because more parallel paths provide larger bisection bandwidth. The fine-grained scheme such as RPS can achieve that...
cloud storage adopts the combination of neighbor item exchange and neighbor migration methods, which incurs large overhead, and suffers from slow convergence. In this work, we present a novel virtual node based decentralized load-balancing method for range-queriable cloud storage. In our method, ...
“default” geolocation cluster meaning that if rules did not match the specific countries and continents then traffic was sent to the San Francisco cluster. Doing a dig in various regions showed the unique IP addresses for redhatkeynote.com allowing us to verify that the geolocation entries were...
However, the traffic patterns in DCNs are quite different from those in the traditional Internet, so the flow scheduling is a very desirable but extremely challenging task. In order to find an effective load balancing method suitable for cloud DCN to improve network utilization, we have studied ...
A method of resetting a stateful connection in a storage cluster with stateless load-balancing is provided. The method includes receiving a packet associated with a stateful connect
