# Load Balancing

Because Directors take a central role with both Client and Engine traffic, they are a key object in configuring the load balancing of components. Directors allocate Clients and Engines to available Brokers.

The default policy for load balancing by Directors is by relative weight; essentially, a Director assigns Clients and Engines to Brokers so that they are equally distributed.

Directors balance load by using the following techniques:

| • | Clients are routed based on the roles that are assigned to the user running the Client.

| • | Each Broker can be configured with weight settings for Clients and Engines which balance the number of clients given to that Broker by the Director.

| • | Idle Engines are relocated to other Brokers if and when needed.

| • | An Engine configuration can be set to have a Home Broker. A Broker can be set up to have a set of Shared Brokers. Any Engine that uses that configuration is routed only to its Home Broker or any Broker that its Home shares to.
