GBDU: An Effective Method to Achieve Load Balancing for Web Server System Design

Abstract

Recently, with the growth of network, many applications on it have been developed to improve the human life. One of the powerful applications is the World Wide Web system. Nowadays, many enterprises develop web applications to service clients, such as stock trading and E-commerce. Therefore, to have a high performance web server system is important. In this paper, we design a web system based on the network infrastructure and propose an effective method called Grouping Based Dynamic Updating method to improve loading balance on web servers. In our method, we will use it to group the strongly related documents together. Then we distribute the groups among web servers and keep them to handle the same number of client requests. Finally, we dynamically update dispatch table, and sustain the loading balance on web servers constantly. According to the performance evaluations, our method is superior to other schemes in response time and loading balance status.
