    Top 6 Load Balancing Algorithms:

    Static Algorithms
    ———————————-
    1. Round robin
    The client requests are sent to different service instances in sequential order. The services are usually required to be stateless.

    2. Sticky round-robin
    This is an improvement of the round-robin algorithm. If Alice’s first request goes to service A, the following requests go to service A as well.

    3. Weighted round-robin
    The admin can specify the weight for each service. The ones with a higher weight handle more requests than others.

    4. Hash
    This algorithm applies a hash function on the incoming requests’ IP or URL. The requests are routed to relevant instances based on the hash function result.

    Dynamic Algorithms
    ————————————
    5. Least connections
    A new request is sent to the service instance with the least concurrent connections.

    6. Least response time
    A new request is sent to the service instance with the fastest response time.
