Load Balancing refers to the process of distributing incoming network traffic across multiple servers or resources to prevent overload on any single server. This technique optimizes resource utilization, maximizes throughput, and ensures high availability and reliability of applications or services. Load balancing helps to improve performance and scalability by evenly distributing traffic and requests, therefore optimizing the overall efficiency of a system or network.
