<![CDATA[Software Defined Network is a popular computer network concept today because of the ease of managing network traffic with the control plane. Massive internet usage makes web server services on SDN networks overloaded. There are many load balancing concepts to overcome this problem, one of which is implementing the K-NN algorithm. This study aims to maximize the performance of the K-NN algorithm on SDN networks by optimizing the K value using Grid Search Cross Validation, and adding server status selection logic based on the smallest disk if the server status calculated by K-NN has the same. All implementations of the load balancing concept in this study were created virtually using Open vSwitch and virtualbox. Testing was carried out using CPU, MEMORY, and DISK parameters sent by the server with the help of the psutils component. JMeter software was used for testing by sending data using the POST method. The data type is text/plain with a data size of 1MB, testing was carried out in stages with threads 100, 200, 300, 400. The test results showed that the performance of the K-NN algorithm was running optimally. There was no significant difference in the distribution of the load to the server, this made the optimization and addition of logic successful.]]>
