The Research of Load Balancing Technology in Server Colony

When the network is using many servers to provide network services, it needs a load balancing technique. This article has researched load-balancing technique that is based on Address Translation (NAT) and that is direct routing. It is simple to say that load balancing is based on Address Translation that can turn the parallel network services of the different IP addresses into a virtual service that is on an IP address by the NAT method. Direct routing technology program is deployed and running on speed Ethernet or kilo-mega Ethernet; it needn’t to change the original topology. The client sends the data request; the load-balancing device is only responsible for dispatching the request, while the application server will respond back to the client. By comparing the two techniques we can draw the conclusion: Under this load balancing that is direct routing mode, the overall performance of the system does not rely on the performance of the device of load balancing performance itself, but it depends on the performance of the application server itself. It can maximize server performance.
