F5 Load balancer Training

Load Balancer is a hardware device which acts as a reverse proxy and distribute network traffic among different servers. The load balancer is used to increase overall performance of the networks. Load balancer receives requests from clients and distribute them across any available server capable of fulfilling the request. They do not send the requests to those servers that are not able to fulfilling the requests. Load balancers help to minimize server response time and maximize throughput.

An application delivery controller with load balancing capabilities helps IT professionals or organizations to ensure scalability and availability of services. Load balancers have advanced traffic management functionality that can help enterprises to handle request more efficiently to the correct resources for each user. Load balancer may offer encryption, authentication and web application firewalling that can help to secure, manage and monitor the many applications and services and ensures best end-user experience.
