How does an SSL work?

Whenever a user visits a secured website, an SSL/TLS Certificate installed on it offers identification information regarding its web server and creates an encrypted connection. Furthermore, all of this process is done within a second. Let’s see how does an SSL work? Web browser or server tries to connect with the server of a website secured with an SSL/TLS Certificate and make a request to a web server for identifying themselves. Copy of a web server’s SSL/TLS Certificate is sent to the browser or server. Once the browser/server receives it verifies whether to trust the SSL/TLS Certificate and then sends a message to the web server. The web server sends back an acknowledgment in a digitally signed format for starting an SSL encrypted session. Now, the access is granted to share encrypted data between the web server and the browser/server.

What is Load Balancer?

A load balancer acts as the “traffic cop” sitting in front of your servers and routing client requests across all servers capable of fulfilling those requests in a manner that maximizes speed and capacity utilization and ensures that no one server is overworked, which could degrade performance. If a single server goes down, the load balancer redirects traffic to the remaining online servers. When a new server is added to the server group, the load balancer automatically starts to send requests to it.

What are Load Balancing Strategies and Policies?

A load balancing strategy or policy instructs the load balancer on where to send the next incoming request. There are many load balancing strategies available depending on the specific solution, however a few common ones are listed below: Round Robin: The most simple load balancing method where each server takes a turn to receive a request. Least Number of Connections: The load balancer will keep track of the number of connections a server has and send the next request to the server with the least connections. Note: Older, layer4 only load balancers tend not to support this as they typically run DSR (Direct Server Return) and don’t know how many connections are currently on the backend servers. Weighted: Typically servers are allocated a percentage capability as one server could be twice as powerful as another. Weighted methods are useful if the load balancer does not know the real and actual performance of the server.
