A scalable load balancing system and method

Abstract

The invention provides an extensible load balancing system which comprises a load balancing server and a plurality of application servers connected with the load balancing server. The load balancing server is used for receiving a service request, extracting an application identifier corresponding to the service request, forwarding the service request to the corresponding application server according to a mapping table of the current application identifier to the application server, meanwhile, receiving resource using information fed back by the application server and updating the mapping table of the application identifier to the application server. Each application server is used for receiving and processing the service request forwarded by the load balancing server, collecting the resource using information of the application server in real time and feeding the resource using information back to the load balancing server. According to the extensible load balancing system, resource scheduling of fine granularity can be supported, and the processing capacity of each server can be fully utilized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile Internet and cloud computing platform, in particular, the present invention relates to an extensible load balancing system and method. Background technique [0002] At present, with the increase of business volume, the rapid growth of WEB access and data traffic, the processing power and computing intensity required by each core part of the mobile Internet and cloud computing network also increase accordingly, making it difficult for a single server device to Take on this ever-increasing mission demand. In this case, if you throw away the existing equipment and do a lot of hardware upgrades, it will cause a waste of existing resources, and if you face the next increase in business volume, this will lead to high costs for another hardware upgrade Even the equipment with excellent performance cannot meet the needs of the current business growth. The network load balancing technology provide...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the existing load balancing solution uses the application server as a unit for resource scheduling, and each application server can only run relatively fixed applications. When this load balancing solution is applied to the mobile Internet or cloud computing environment, it obviously cannot make full use of all server processing power
