Minimum response times thanks to load-balancing linux clusters

By distributing inquiries over several servers you can guarantee your customers minimum response times and avoid downturns in performance caused by peak loads. And at the same time achieve full transparency for users and the session data of your applications.

Our solutions can be scaled to suit requirements, starting with just two servers and extending up to several hundred systems operating in parallel.

Load balancing examples

Load balancing works with many applications, without requiring modifications to these:

  • Application-Server
    Application
    servers
  • Datenbanken
    Databases
  • Firewalls
    Firewalls
  • Mailserver
    Mail servers
  • Webserver
    Web servers

In combination with solutions for high availability, continuity of business operations is still possible even during high peak loads or after the failure of individual servers or load balancers. This is because the failure of individual servers does not impair the overall functionality. Maintenance tasks can be performed without downtime, during normal business hours, lowering administrative costs.

We deploy pure load balancing solutions, like ldirectord, Keepalived or Pound, as well as applications which additionally can cache the distributed contend, like Varnish.

When setting up and operating our load-balancing cluster solutions, we prefer to use cost-effective off-the-shelf hardware plus fully developed, proven, free and open source software from the Linux© domain, for example ldirectord, Keepalived, Varnish and Pound.
