Load Balanced Server Hosting

By selecting a load balanced solution you are in effect spreading copies of your website across multiple servers.  The main benefits of this are that in the event of a server failure your website will continue to be served from the other machines behind the load balancer and additionally for high traffic websites the load is also spread across multiple machines meaning an improvement in loading speeds of your site.

Unlike other providers we only provide customers with dedicated load balancers ensuring their load balancer is not shared with other users.  Customers can request full management control over their load balancer and access to this is restricted to their IPs.

Yes, absolutely.  Multiple servers can be added / removed from behind your load balancer at any time with no impact on service.

Layer 4 load balancing distribute requests between servers at the transport layer using TCP/UDP protocols whereas Layer 7 is known as application based load balancing, to parse requests in application layer and distribute them to servers based on different types of request contents.  Please get in touch today to discuss which type of load balancing is best suited to your application.
