Load balancing algorithms in heterogeneous web cluster
Fatma Mbarek, Volodymyr Mosorov · 2018
The load balancing is dedicated for distributed and parallel systems to manage the web cluster. It distributes the load among web servers using several scheduling algorithms. This paper investigates a detailed comparison of some HAProxy algorithms in heterogeneous web cluster as well as the meta-heuristic methods that inspired by the insects' colonies behavior such as Ant Colony Optimization algorithm and Honey Bee algorithm. The basic idea of meta-heuristic methods is to solve combinatorial optimization problems.
