==DNS Round Robin==▼
Please do not add DNS Round Robin as a load balancer. It has no knowledge of the "load" of each servers and gives a IP in the order it is listed. Further more, due to client side cache, if a server is down, the client will not be able to connect to it. I have mentioned this example: 100 web servers with "Hello World" HTML page and 5 clients connect everyday. On day 1, clients will connect to SRV1, SRV2, SRV3, SRV4, and SRV5. On day 20, SRV100 will be reached and during those 20 days, SRV1 will be completely idle with 0 connections. That is NOT load balancing or even failover.▼

I'm considering about mentioning ___domain-based load balancing (for example, the use of [[WWW2]]). Not sure where to add it. --[[User:Franklin Yu|Franklin Yu]] ([[User talk:Franklin Yu|talk]]) 06:28, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

:Please add new topic ''on the bottom''. You can use the ''New section'' button for simplicity.
:DNS Round Robin doesn't work in all scenarios, but it certainly does work in some. Please do not repeated delete content when your edit is reverted, see [[WP:BRD]]. --[[User:Zac67|Zac67]] ([[User talk:Zac67|talk]]) 09:18, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
