A Content-Aware Load Balancing Algorithm in Web Cluster System
Shuang Li · 2003
Web Cluster is an effective mechanism used in Web site construction to deal with the system capacity problem. Researchers proposed several strategies or algorithms, which improve the performance and scalability of the Web cluster system. In this paper, a content-based load distribution algorithm is proposed. It takes the processing ability of back-end severs and the request load weight into account, and ensure the request locality. The emulation results illustrate that this algorithm performs better in different kinds of Web site, comparing with other relative algorithms.
