For example, in clustering, load balancing might distribute the incoming transactions evenly to all servers, or it might redirect them ; fault tolerance See fault tolerant. (architecture) fault tolerance - 1. The ability of a system or component to continue normal operation despite the presence of hardware or software faults. This often involves some degree of redundancy. 2. ; online maintenance and transparency (1) The quality of being able to see through a material. The terms transparency and translucency are often used synonymously; however, transparent would technically mean "seeing through clear glass," while translucent would mean "seeing through frosted glass." See alpha blending. .

An excessive load. Adj. 1. . The load balance is performed by a distributed algorithm, and requires no interaction with any external devices or software. To make the most out of the system, the algorithm uses the performance of each node as input for optimal distribution of the traffic. |
