B
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
Load balancers distribute incoming network traffic across multiple servers, improving the availability and scalability of applications. They help to ensure that no single server becomes overwhelmed, thereby enhancing the overall performance and reliability of the service.
Availability: Distributing traffic prevents any single server from becoming a bottleneck or point of failure.
Scalability: Adding more servers behind the load balancer allows the system to handle increased traffic.
Redundancy: Load balancers can be deployed in a redundant configuration to prevent them from being a single point of failure.
