As your website grows and you start getting tremendous traffic for your site then you may need to get multiple servers for handling such traffic and running your webbusiness smoothly. You can cluster all your servers and can be linked to master server so that they can minimize load on master server. Having more then one servers to handle the workload will increases performance (speeding up the process), and the redundancy.
if one of the working server goes down, the other can still continue to function and can render webpage request thus it will ensure maximum uptime. Using this technology you  can group number of servers as a single virtual server which can process huge number of request at same time. Load balancing is usually implemented in conjunction with server clustering. A load balancing cluster distributes the load of incoming TCP/IP traffic, while a server cluster provides fault tolerance thus ensure you with maximum uptime guarantee and excellent.

There are many other advantages if you setup a load balancing technology for your network such as :
Flexible server management : Server administrator can easily move workload onto particular server so that he can update any server within a given cluster without affecting other servers and data accessibility.
Uninterrupted server availability with fault tolerance : In a cluster servers if any of your server gets failed then you need not have to worry about it, clustering software will detect the failed hardware and will will shift onto workload on other working server. Thus you have 100% uptime guarantee for your server.
Better scalability : If you need to add more servers for your network so as to get maximum performance you are free to do so at any point of time. Load balancing can be scaled across multiple servers in a cluster.
Thus Load balancing technology ensures you with high availability little or no downtime for Web, proxy, terminal, and VPN servers giving you optimal performance.
