## 8.2. Installing the Web Server and Load Balancer

A front-end web server fields incoming requests from clients. In order to pass these requests to EKM and receive responses, the web server must be equipped and configured to communicate with the application server(s) hosting the EKM server application. A load balancer is used to communicate between the web server and the application server(s).

This section documents the steps for installing and configuring Apache web server and mod_proxy load balancer for use with EKM.
