Although the web is becoming a widely accepted medium, it provides relatively poor performance and low availability. A cluster consists of a collection of interconnected stand-alone computers working together and provides a high-availability solution in application area such as web services or information systems. In this paper, we propose a load balancer architecture under the web server cluster that provides high-availability, high performance and scalability. In addtion, we propose an efficient load balancing algorithm that considers access rate and size of documents. Specially, our algorithm does not require the nodes running under similar configurations and the same operating system. Also, server cache can be utilized more efficiently.
