Abstract:-  Web base applications have grown huge and complex owing to dynamic computations and large number of dispersed users. This paper highlights some challenges before the researchers causing overload in the web based applications and necessitate the use of scheduling techniques like Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) in Information Technology. The primary issues include mismatch of servers, lack of optimization algorithms in routers and heterogeneity of end servers. These issues make us aware of possible problems which may be encountered in distributed computing environment and provide a new direction to research in the area of distributed scheduling. We feel that such problems have been ignored by the research community and need urgent attention.
