In this post, we will discuss Virtualization, load balancing, Hypervision, and Machine Imaging
What is load balancing?
In simple terms balancing traffic in an appropriate and effective way is called load balancing.
Example:-
Suppose you have a website and your gateway can handle 1000 visitor at a time but traffic is 2300
what will happen to your gateway? It will stop working and your website may crash.
This is called load and if we manage this using more gateways it will be called load balancing.
Real-time Example:-
Flipkart hosts sale on 22 July 2014 and Site "Crashed"
Do you know why?
Because the traffic was more than expected and the gateway failed to process
The error was 5001,5002,5003 which refer to gateway and service unavailable.

How to overcome crash and the answer is to buy more gateways and handle the traffic.
let's understand it with a simple example
You have a website whose daily traffic is 1000 visitor and on sale, your traffic reached up to 10,000 visitors.
You won't buy a new server or gateway for that what you will do is,
you will rent gateway and you will handle the traffic, it's the cost-efficient and right way to process the traffic. It will be a virtual and the user can access it anytime.
Now, What is virtualization?
Virtualization refers to the creation of a virtual resource such as a server, desktop, operating system, file, storage or network.Real-time example
If you wanna use the android game in pc what will you do?
You will use bluestacks
What is Bluestacks?
It's an emulator which help you to run mobile apps.it will provide you with a virtual platform to access the apps.
Example 2
We use Software for installing 2 operating system (window 7,8, Linux etc)in single PC
its virtualization and the software is emulator which help the user to get a virtual experience.
The hypervisor is the emulator
which support virtualization and through virtualization load balancing is done.
