Let’s talk Load Balancing in Azure!
Load Balancing distributes workloads across multiple resources, improving your cloud experience and performance. Azure Load Balancing services can be categorized as global or regional, and HTTP(S) or non-HTTP(S). This post will guide you on how to optimize your resource use, maximize throughput, and ensure high availability. Stay tuned! 🚀
Global services distribute traffic across regional back-ends, while regional services distribute traffic within a region.
🌍 Azure Front Door provides global load balancing and site acceleration for web applications. Azure Traffic Manager is a DNS-based load balancer distributing traffic optimally across global Azure regions.
