With the explosive use of internet, contemporary web servers are susceptible to overloads during which their services deteriorate drastically and often lead to denial of services.

Load balancing is one of the central problems that have to be solved in parallel queueing web server system. To analyze load balancing this paper presents a queueing system that has two web servers.

Finally some of our results are further considered.
