Load Balancing Methods
Last updated: 2024-12-16 17:12:31
A load balancing method is an algorithm for GWLB to allocate traffic to real servers.

Load Balancing Algorithm

GWLB supports traffic scheduling with the symmetric hash algorithm based on the 3-tuple of source IP, destination IP address, and transport protocol. The traffic with the same 3-tuple will be scheduled to the same real server.

Load Balancing Stickiness

Adding or removing an instance in the target group: All traffic will be rehashed.
If a certain healthy instance in the target group becomes unhealthy: The traffic of the faulty node will be rehashed to other healthy nodes.
If a certain unhealthy instance in the target group becomes healthy: The traffic belonging to the recovered node will be redirected back to it.
