Article Name : | | DNS LOAD BALANCING USING BIND | Author Name : | | TEJAL K PATEL AND PURNIMA SINGH | Publisher : | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | Article Series No. : | | GRT-2400 | Article URL : | | ![](images/pdf_download.png) | Author Profile View PDF In browser | Abstract : | | The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) implements a domain name server for a number of operating systems. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, distributed database. It stores information for mapping Internet host names to IP addresses and vice versa. The problem is that for years, load balancers have been strictly hardware-based and as such, cost and wear always took their physical toll. In the case of DNS-based load balancing, these problems don't exist or are removed from the end user. By default DNS support round robin mechanism for load balancing. But it is not going to consider processing power and load of the load balancing server. SO that approach can be consider as load sharing rather than load balancing. Here I am going to propose load balancing scheme which is going to be implement in BIND. I am going to integrate Load balancing algorithm with BIND which is going to consider load and processing power of all load balancing node. | Keywords : | | |
