Load balancer

Internet load balancing is a method of distributing Internet traffic across multiple connections to improve performance and reliability. The method saves costs compared to a single ISP link. Modern load balancing algorithms provide more precise granularity, enabling package-level aggregation and simultaneous use of multiple links. It is important to check whether the load balancer supports the broadband binding for efficient aggregation. In addition, a load balancer should provide firewall, Quality of Service (QoS), traffic monitoring, and traffic shaping features. Efficiency and low latency are critical for optimal performance. Benchmarking and testing the performance of the load balancer is recommended.
