Benefits

Why use Load Balancer?

Ensure your applications are always available and responsive

High Availability

Eliminate single points of failure. If one instance fails, traffic is automatically redirected to healthy instances.

99.995%
uptime

Optimized Performance

Intelligently distributes traffic based on each server's current load, ensuring fast and consistent response.

< 5ms
latency

Transparent Scalability

Add or remove instances without interruption. The load balancer automatically adapts to infrastructure changes.

When to use?

Ideal for applications that maintain user state on the server, such as shopping carts, login sessions or temporary data not stored in the database.

How it works

How It Works

Intelligent traffic distribution process

01

Configure a load balancer

Ports, protocols, algorithm

Define basic settings like input and output ports, protocol (HTTP/HTTPS, TCP/UDP) and load balancing algorithm.

02

Add instances

Register backend VMs

Register your server instances as backends. The load balancer will distribute traffic among them.

03

Automatic health checks

Continuous health monitoring

The system continuously checks if each instance is healthy and automatically removes those that fail.

04

Intelligent routing

Traffic to healthy instances

Traffic is distributed only to healthy instances using the configured algorithm (round-robin, least connections, etc).
