Web Server and Load Balancer Configurations

Media server is capable of editing and controlling configuration files and processes of web servers and load balancer as intended.

Future Plan

We are continuing our tests on the system. Different load levels.

Load balancer dynamism may be improved further.

Conclusion

Our system is mostly complete and we have recently

started testing.

So far, our load balancing seems to be working fine.

We have encountered minor bugs and fixed them.
