Abstract
Nginx is a commonly used and free open-source web server that is used as a reverse proxy server, load balancer and HTTP cache. It consumes less memory and can handle more clients with less number of processes. Nginx provides users with five predefined load balancing algorithms. However, most of these algorithms are static and some of the load balancing rules are inefficient. In order to make the load of a cluster more stable under high concurrent requests, we developed a Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) algorithm that uses Nginx as a network security control panel to provide load balancing for a cluster of backend servers. The DLB algorithm is based on the weighted round robin module of Nginx, Logistic Regression and Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) algorithm. It handles the situation of high concurrent requests and reduces the probability of omitted or under-reported incident and status. We also propose a Hybrid Load Balance Method (HLBM) that incorporates the DLB algorithm and evolutionary computing to further improve the performance. We have conducted limited experiment by using dynamic load balancing algorithm. We will complete to develop the Hybrid Load Balance method and conduct experiments for HLBM.
