6 algorithms that'll help you load balance traffic:
1 Round robin
→ Load balancer forwards the request to the servers in a sequential order
2 Weighted round robin
→ Load balancer forwards the request based on server capacity
3 Least connections
→ Load balancer forwards the request to the server with the fewest connections
4 IP hash
→ Load balancer forwards the request based on client's IP address
5 Least response time
→ Load balancer forwards the request to the fastest responding server
6 Adaptive
→ Load balancer forwards the request based on server health
