Multiple Instance of an Laravel App using central database session

I have the following Idea to implement, Create a multiple instances/clones of Laravel Project and each will be accessing the common DB with sessions stored in database sessions table.

The reason here is My app server gets high load and it gets eventually slowed down during the peak hours, so if I have multiple App servers I hope issue of high load to servers will be reduced with this?

Any Suggesstions?

@bannaarisamy If your web app is getting high traffic, then I wouldn’t be putting extra load on my database by making it the session store as well.
