Load Balancing Algorithms

Choose the right algorithm for your application's traffic distribution needs. Switch between algorithms anytime without downtime.

Round Robin

Distributes requests sequentially across all backend servers. Each server receives an equal share of traffic.

Best For:
Stateless applications with uniform server capacity and similar processing times.
Example:
Request 1 → Server A, Request 2 → Server B, Request 3 → Server C, Request 4 → Server A...

Least Connections

Routes new requests to the server with the fewest active connections. Ideal for long-lived connections.

Best For:
Applications with varying request durations like database queries or video streaming.
Example:
Server A (5 connections), Server B (3 connections) → Next request goes to Server B

Source IP Hash

Uses the client IP address to determine which backend server receives the request. Same client always reaches the same server.

Best For:
Stateful applications requiring session persistence without cookies.
Example:
Client 192.168.1.10 → Always routed to Server B based on IP hash

Weighted Round Robin

Similar to Round Robin but allows you to assign different weights to servers based on their capacity.

Best For:
Mixed server configurations where some servers have more resources than others.
Example:
Server A (weight 3), Server B (weight 1) → Server A gets 75% of traffic, Server B gets 25%

Need Help Choosing?

Round Robin is the default and works well for most web applications with stateless backends.

Least Connections is better when requests have varying processing times or when using WebSockets.

Source IP Hash is ideal when you need session persistence but can't use cookies (e.g., for UDP or TCP load balancing).

Weighted Round Robin should be used when you have servers with different specifications or want to gradually introduce new servers.

Common Use Cases

Load balancers are essential for modern, scalable applications

Web Applications

Distribute HTTP/HTTPS traffic across multiple web servers to handle high traffic volumes and ensure zero downtime.

Microservices Architecture

Route requests to containerized services running on Kubernetes or Docker Swarm with intelligent traffic distribution.

API Gateway

Create a single entry point for API requests and distribute them across multiple API server instances.

Database Load Balancing

Balance read queries across database replicas while directing writes to the primary instance.

Gaming Applications

Distribute player connections across game server instances with low-latency TCP/UDP load balancing.

Media Streaming

Handle high-bandwidth video and audio streaming with efficient load distribution and failover.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this product

A load balancer distributes incoming network traffic across multiple backend servers. This improves application availability, performance, and fault tolerance. If one server fails, the load balancer automatically routes traffic to healthy servers, ensuring your application stays online.
Load balancers are billed at a flat monthly rate based on the size tier you choose (Small, Medium, Large, or Enterprise). Pricing includes unlimited data transfer between the load balancer and your backend servers in the same region. There are no hidden fees or per-request charges.
Yes! Our load balancers work with any backend server including Lineserve Cloud Servers, VPS, Dedicated Servers, Kubernetes clusters, or even servers hosted elsewhere. As long as your backend servers are network-accessible, you can add them to a load balancer pool.
You can upload your SSL certificates directly to the load balancer for SSL/TLS termination. The load balancer handles HTTPS encryption/decryption, reducing load on your backend servers. We support SNI (Server Name Indication) for hosting multiple SSL certificates on a single load balancer.
Health checks continuously monitor your backend servers by sending periodic requests (HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, or ICMP). If a server fails to respond correctly, it's automatically removed from the pool until it becomes healthy again. You can customize check intervals, timeouts, and healthy/unhealthy thresholds.
Session persistence (also called sticky sessions) ensures that requests from the same client are always routed to the same backend server. This is essential for stateful applications that store session data locally. We offer cookie-based and source IP-based persistence methods.
Round Robin is best for evenly distributed workloads where all servers have similar capacity. Least Connections works well for long-lived connections. Source IP Hash ensures the same client always reaches the same server. Weighted Round Robin allows you to send more traffic to more powerful servers.
You can deploy a load balancer in under 60 seconds through our control panel or API. After creation, simply add your backend servers, configure health checks, and point your DNS to the load balancer IP address. Your load balancer will be ready to handle traffic immediately.
Yes! You can upgrade or downgrade your load balancer tier at any time with zero downtime. The transition is seamless, and your existing configuration, SSL certificates, and backend pools are preserved during the upgrade.
Load balancers are available in all Lineserve regions. For best performance, deploy your load balancer in the same region as your backend servers. Cross-region load balancing is also possible for geo-distributed applications.
