Description

FortiGSLB efficiently and securely provides applications across various locations. A crucial aspect of designing and implementing internet-driven services for both enterprise and carrier networks is horizontal scalability. Organizations need the capability to swiftly and conveniently incorporate additional network resources and launch cloud-based applications to maintain business continuity and facilitate effective disaster recovery in case of server or data center failures. However, unreliable internet connectivity or security can hinder these initiatives significantly. Lacking such adaptability often compels businesses to invest in larger and more powerful hardware solutions to tackle capacity issues, resulting in higher expenses and an increase in total cost of ownership (TCO) without effectively solving problems related to failover and service availability. Ultimately, finding a balance between performance and cost efficiency remains critical for organizations striving to meet growing demands.

Description

As the demand on a website or business application escalates, a single server may struggle to handle the entire workload effectively. To address this challenge, organizations implement a technique known as "load balancing," which distributes the workload across multiple servers, thereby preventing any one server from becoming overwhelmed and potentially causing slowdowns, dropped requests, or system crashes. This approach allows for a more equitable distribution of network traffic, reducing the risk of resource overload and subsequent failures. Consequently, the performance and availability of various applications, websites, databases, and other computing resources are significantly enhanced. Additionally, load balancing ensures that user requests are processed efficiently and accurately. From the user's vantage point, load balancing operates subtly between the client and a cluster of servers, guaranteeing that connection requests are handled without any loss. Ultimately, without the implementation of load balancing, applications, websites, databases, and online services would be at a higher risk of failure during periods of increased demand, making it a crucial component for maintaining operational stability. Furthermore, this strategy not only optimizes resource usage but also enhances the overall user experience by minimizing latency and ensuring seamless access to services.
