Abstract
The disclosure provides a load balancing system, a load balancing device and a topology management method. The topology management method includes configuring and maintaining a transmission progress value for each of edge servers; grouping the edge servers into server groups, wherein the edge servers of each of the server groups provide one of a plurality of video streams, and each of the edge servers is grouped into at least one server group among the server groups; selecting a first video stream from at least one video stream corresponding of a first edge server having bandwidth usage rate higher than a high load threshold; synchronizing video data of the first video stream to a second edge server; setting a transmission progress value of the second edge server as a transmission progress value of the first edge server; and adding the second edge server into the server group corresponding to the first video stream.
