Round robin doesn't consider the current load or health of individual servers then why use round robin algorithm in load balancer?

Question

HARI Kannan · Accepted Answer

Round robin load balancing distributes requests evenly across servers in a simple, cyclic order without considering server load or health. It’s used because it’s easy to implement, efficient, and works well when servers have similar capacity and workloads. Typically, it’s combined with health checks to avoid sending traffic to unhealthy servers.
