ADC Overview

Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)/Load balancer distributes network traffic across servers. It acts as a reverse proxy to increase the reliability of the applications by distributing incoming traffic from clients across multiple server resources.

Three core functions of load balancers are:

• Efficiently distribute Network Load or Client's Request across servers.

• Sending requests to the server available, enabling high application availability.

• Increase and decrease the number of servers based on traffic.
