Implementation of Load Balancing Technology Using Raspberry Pi as a Server for Computer Based Examination

Description:

Since 2014, Indonesian government has implemented a computer-based National Examination as a substitute for paper-based National Examination. Schools that conduct computer-based National Examinations should provide the Server as a provider of questions for students to work on. Not all schools have sufficient funds for server procurement. This research demonstrates load balancing technology in the server of computer-based examination at an educational institution using Raspberry Pi as a first step to handling the computer-based National Examination. Raspberry PI is a relatively low-cost single-board computer technology that will serve as a solution to reduce costs for conductiong the computer-based examination. This research using PPDIOO method as research methodology to design and implement the Raspberry Pi as a load balancing server for computer-based examination server. The result show that Rasberry Pi can be use as server and the load balancing technology can be also implemented to improve the access quality of user in the server.
