How mirrors are transferred, by what algorithm they understand that the service is loaded and it requires a mirror. Let's say there is a Yandex service, how to understand that a mirror is needed for it? Googled, but found nothing, maybe someone will tell you, direct or recommend books.

The mirror is not a backup and the "backup" tag, in the context of your question, is out of place. If the server is loaded, then it needs to provide high availability - several servers processing the service; multiple channels; several data centers; data replication; load balancing. That's all. In each case, it is configured individually. Google - the architecture of high-load systems.

The Yandex service has horizontal scaling close to linear; mirrors are not made for such services. And in general, mirrors are not about loads.

How are mirrors handled?

Just like regular servers.

by what algorithm do they understand that the service is loaded and it requires a mirror.

The load on the server has nothing to do with the need to create a mirror.

Let's say there is a Yandex service, how to understand that a mirror is needed for it?

Ask the owner if the owner thinks that he needs a mirror, then it is.
