Case Study: Eindhoven University of Technology achieves high website availability and simplified management with Loadbalancer.org Enterprise High Availability Clustered Pair

Leading European research university maintains top-class website with Loadbalancer.org

Eindhoven University of Technology needed to ensure its main website — the primary interface for students, researchers and industry — stayed fast and highly available while becoming easier to manage. Serving roughly 25,000 visitors and 100,000 page requests per day from two web servers, the university wanted greater resilience during peak events and simpler maintenance, so it upgraded its existing load‑balancing deployment with Loadbalancer.org’s Enterprise High Availability Clustered Pair.

Loadbalancer.org’s Enterprise High Availability Clustered Pair sits between visitors and the web servers, automatically detecting failures, shifting traffic to live nodes, and allowing web servers and multiple sites to be added or taken offline without disruption. The deployment preserved performance under load, simplified day‑to‑day management, reduced IT staff time on manual tasks and lowered support costs, delivering a more resilient, easier‑to‑operate web infrastructure for Eindhoven University of Technology.
