The web application is expected to be continuously available, to meet these objectives the web application must be supported by a reliable, dynamic and flexible web server. This is possible if the system utilizes more than one web server to serve requests from users. Load Balancing makes web application performance better when more than one server is used. This can improve the efficiency of the results created by the server, and reduce the traffic load from a single server and distribute the traffic load to all servers connected to load balancer. In this study a load balancing performance review will be carried out on HAProxy and Nginx by implementing the Round-robin algorithm on both load balancing servers. The results of the final conclusions of this study are which load balancing server has better performance which can later be used as a descriptive and measurable reference for future studies.
