Most importantly, it will route traffic to nodes where hot functions are running to ensure optimal performance, as well as distribute load if traffic to a specific function increases. It also gathers information about the entire cluster which you can use to know when to scale out (add more Fn servers) or in (decrease Fn servers). + +## Load balancing several Fn servers You can run multiple Fn instances and balance the load amongst them using `fnlb` as follows: ```sh
