School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science Motivation  With the increasing demand for the capacity of the web servers, load balancing will be a crucial part in managing work load on each server to reduce traffic congestion and avoid break-down failure.  In order to make the web servers to serve our Movie Online Search and Sale Website with high reliability and QoS satisfaction, we were inspired by a paper called ‘Dynamic Load Balancing on Web Server Systems’.  It involves various of TTL algorithms and descriptions for multiple loading request approaches with throughput and availability improvement.  Thus, we aim to select one appropriate load balancer from the paper to assist our original Movie E-commerce Web App in loading, scheduling and distributing requests to different servers with availability and performance enhancement.

School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science Goals  1. Basically build a Movie Search & Sale Web App by use one instance in AWS EC2 cloud at first.  2. Survey on various of loading request approaches and file replication research, analyze them in current specific scenario, and select an appropriate one with simple but efficient consistency scheme.  3. Scale up web servers as multiple instances and incorporate with specific load balancer selected.  4. Evaluate by using Jmeter. And verified as performance improved.
