Spring Cloud LoadBalancer

Spring Cloud LoadBalancer is a tool that helps distribute incoming network requests evenly across multiple service instances in a cloud environment. It ensures that no single server is overwhelmed by balancing the workload, which improves application reliability and responsiveness. Think of it like a traffic controller that directs cars (requests) to different roads (servers) smoothly and efficiently. By intelligently choosing which server handles each request, it helps maintain consistent performance and availability of services, especially as the number of users or requests grows.
