In times of high demand, effective traffic management is essential for public service platforms to maintain reliable, continuous access for users. This paper explores the role of cloud load balancers as a solution for optimizing traffic distribution in public services during peak periods. By dynamically distributing network traffic across multiple servers, cloud load balancers enhance system scalability, flexibility, and response time, which are critical for minimizing service disruptions. The paper further discusses best practices for configuring load balancers, including geographic balancing and redundancy, and highlights the importance of integrating dynamic scaling and monitoring tools to adapt to sudden traffic surges. Additionally, the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive analytics in advancing cloud load balancing is considered, emphasizing their value for predictive scaling and automated traffic management. Key challenges, including data privacy and dependency on third-party infrastructure, are also addressed, with recommendations for enhancing load balancer deployment in public service applications. This paper concludes with strategic recommendations for public service providers to leverage cloud technology effectively, ensuring improved reliability, security, and cost-efficiency in service delivery.
