Another popular method of load balancing is to use Round Robin DNS solution and other software solutions which were not mentioned here. Round Robin DNS is problematic but can be of help sometimes.

Two great things I like about hardware load balancer are session support and authentication, they are great on multiple servers.

I also have to agree that SingleHop can provide great load balancing solution for its customers.

Good blogging.

Renan.
