Abstract
Popular Web sites cannot rely on a single powerful server nor on independent mirrored-servers to support the ever-increasing request load. Distributed Web server architectures that transparently schedule client requests offer a way to meet dynamic scalability and availability requirements. The authors review the state of the art in load balancing techniques on distributed Web-server systems, and analyze the efficiencies and limitations of the various approaches.
