As your app grows, handling high traffic smoothly becomes essential! Scaling Node.js effectively with Load Balancing and Clustering can boost performance and reliability. Hereβs how:
Load Balancing: Distribute incoming traffic across multiple servers to keep response times low, even with heavy traffic. Think of it as a traffic director, preventing any single server from being overwhelmed.
Clustering: Node.js runs on a single thread, but with clustering, you can utilize all CPU cores on your server by spinning up multiple instancesβmaking it possible to handle more requests simultaneously!
Together, load balancing and clustering create a powerful, resilient Node.js setup that scales with your user base, delivering a faster and more reliable experience.
