Traditional load balancers cannot distinguish between read and write operations or intelligently reroute traffic during node failures. Single-node database architectures are exposed as a weakness under high-traffic events such as flash sales. Without a smart routing layer, the primary node bears the full brunt of write-heavy load even when read replicas exist.
