The main idea of implementing a load balancer is to balance the load to the portal and remove any single point of failure. However, after implementing the load balancer, the load balancer itself becomes a single point of failure.
Any thoughts regarding the same? Should we have multiple load balancers involved, i.e a master and a slave or a dual master setup?
