Build Your Own Load Balancer using Nginx | Hands-on Tutorial

🚀 Welcome to Episode 4 of the System Design Series! In the previous video, we learned the theory behind Load Balancing, different algorithms, and Layer 4 vs Layer 7 Load Balancers. Now it's time to build one ourselves. In this hands-on tutorial, we'll configure Nginx as a Load Balancer, distribute traffic across multiple backend servers, and understand how production systems handle incoming requests efficiently. 📚 In this video, you'll learn: ✅ What is Nginx? ✅ Installing Nginx ✅ Configuring Nginx as a Load Balancer ✅ Creating Multiple Backend Servers ✅ Deploying servers on AWS EC2 ✅ Configuring the upstream Block ✅ Reverse Proxy using proxy_pass ✅ Understanding how Nginx routes incoming requests By the end of this video, you'll have your own working Load Balancer running and understand how this concept is used in real-world distributed systems. 📺 Complete High-Level Design (HLD) Playlist: 🔗    • System Design | Complete High-Level Design...   Github Repos: 🔗 IP Server: https://github.com/hp1430/IP-Server 🔗 AWS Setup: https://github.com/hp1430/aws-ec2-scr... 🔗 Nginx Setup: https://github.com/hp1430/nginx-setup 🔗 Nginx Config: https://github.com/hp1430/nginx-config 📌 Previous Videos: Episode 1 – What is System Design?
