Shruthi J · Accepted Answer

A load balancer distributes incoming traffic across multiple servers in a web application. This prevents any one server from getting overloaded, improves performance & ensures high availability. If a server goes down the load balancer redirects traffic to available ones, keeping the application running smoothly.
