Abstract

According to examples, a system for rate-based load balancing may include a processor and a memory storing instructions. The processor may, through execution of the instructions, cause the system to receive a request for processing. The system may further identify a target server to transmit the request using a rate-based load balancing technique. In some examples, the rate-based load balancing technique may include: selecting a server, from a plurality of servers, as a potential target; receiving a readiness indicator for the selected server; and designating the selected server as the target server based on the readiness indicator. The system may transmit the request to the target server for processing.
