Load Balancing Glossary Definition

Load balancing is the ability of processors to schedule themselves to ensure that all are kept busy while instruction streams are available.

Load Balancing is a Cloud reliability or observability concept used to understand system behavior, measure service health, and recover from failures.

This term is commonly used in software engineering, programming, scripting, application design, testing, and development lifecycle work.

Operations and reliability teams use this concept when setting objectives, investigating incidents, improving resilience, and communicating service health.
