Abstract

Techniques for load balancing based on relative credit balances are described. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: determining current credit balances for a plurality of compute instances; receiving a request; selecting one of the compute instances to be a destination for the request based on a comparison of the current credit balances; and transmitting the request to the selected compute instance.
