Scaling your deployment to provision multiple web/Puma servers behind one of these virtual load balancers can help provide more consistent performance by reducing the risk that a single server may become overwhelmed by user traffic, and decrease downtime when performing maintenance or upgrades. You should consult your provider documentation on how to setup and configure a load balancer, but consider that you need to configure your load balancer to monitor the health of the backend web/Puma nodes, otherwise you may send traffic to a service that is not responsive.
