The Art of Load Balancing: Cutting Tail Latency at Scale - AWS Community Day Turkiye 2025

Описание: In this session, we'll dive deep into load balancing, a cornerstone of scalable and reliable architectures. We'll discuss: 1.Load Balancing Across Layers: Explore Hardware, L4 (Network) vs. L7 (Application) load balancing, their use cases, and trade-offs. 2.Load Balancing Methods: Compare algorithms like round robin, least connections, and weighted routing. 3.Tail Latency: Understand what causes tail latency in distributed systems, why it matters, and how to mitigate it.
