Time-based adjustable load balancing

Abstract

A time-based adjustable load balancing method and device is provided, which, by acquiring and recording at least one timed task including an execution time period and a load balancing method to be executed in the execution time period, implements creation of different load balancing methods based on definition of multiple time periods, and executes a corresponding load balancing method in an execution time period. Further, it is determined whether a current time enters an execution time period of one timed task, and if yes, the load balancing method corresponding to the timed task is acquired, and load balancing between multiple servers is processed based on the corresponding load balancing method, until the execution time period corresponding to the timed task ends, thereby implementing flexible configuration of a user. The load balancing method meeting the user requirement is flexibly applied to complicated user scenarios, thereby enhancing applicability of the load balancing.
