Web Server Performance

Computer system performance can be measured using the amount of useful work accomplished by that system when compared to the time and resources utilized. Useful work here means how well the computer is doing the work it is supposed to do. Most websites work under the support of web servers that usually include hardware (for instance CPU, RAM, Disk, and network) as well as software (web services). The alarming growth in web traffic has led to performance problems and has necessitated much research activities as ways to improve web server performance. In this paper, a web server performance evaluation system that evaluates a server based on time of file execution and bandwidth has been designed and developed. Access log data sets from University of Port Harcourt web site were used to study the system and develop software for checking time of server activity in any domain where the application is executed. The evaluation system so designed and developed can be deployed in any server and the values generated can be used in making useful decisions that will mitigate certain occurrences in the future and also offers site owners information that will be useful in forecasting users visiting behaviours and the effects on the server downtime.

The Web

Today, web services rapidly increased and are accessed by many users, leading to massive traffic on the Internet. Hence, the web server suffers from this problem, and it becomes challenging to manage the total traffic with growing users. It will be overloaded and show response time and bottleneck, so this massive traffic must be shared among several servers. Therefore, the load balancing technologies and server clusters are potent methods for dealing with server bottlenecks. Load balancing techniques distribute the load among servers in the cluster so that it balances all web servers. The motivation of this paper is to give an overview of the several load balancing techniques used to enhance the efficiency of web servers in terms of response time, throughput, and resource utilization. Different algorithms are addressed by researchers and get good results like the pending job, and IP hash algorithms achieve better performance.
