Note: this is an abstract component that cannot be instantiated.
The Placement Algorithm is used to choose the appropriate backend server to use to create a new entry in an entry balancing request processor.
Note that even though multiple Placement Algorithms can be assigned to an entry balancing request processor, only the alphabetically first enabled Placement Algorithm will be used.
