Frequently Asked Questions
What is a load balancer?
A load balancer distributes incoming network traffic across multiple backend servers. This prevents any single server from becoming overwhelmed, improving application responsiveness and availability.
Who typically uses a load balancer?
Businesses that host their own applications or websites, especially those experiencing significant traffic, use load balancers to ensure their services remain available and perform well.
What is SSL offloading?
SSL offloading is a process where the load balancer handles the encryption and decryption of SSL/TLS traffic, rather than the web servers. This frees up server resources and improves performance.
