Abstract
With the recent growth of Internet-based application services, the concurrent accessing requests arriving at the particular servers offering application services are growing significantly. It is one of the critical strategies that employing load balancing to cope with the massive concurrent accessing requests and improve the access performance is. To build up a better online service to users, load balancing solutions achieve to deal with the massive incoming concurrent requests in parallel through assigning and scheduling the work executed by the members within one server cluster. In this paper, we propose a dynamic feedback-based load balancing methodology. The method analyzes the real-time load and response status of each single cluster member through periodically collecting its work condition information to evaluate the current load pressure by comparing the learned load balancing performance with the preset threshold. In this way, since the load arriving at the cluster could be distributed dynamically with the optimized manner, the load balancing performance could thus be maintained so that the service throughput capacity would correspondingly be improved and the response delay to service requests would be reduced. The proposed result is contributed to strengthening the concurrent access capacity of server clusters. According to the experiment report, the overall performance of server system employing the proposed solution is better.
