Load Balancer
Spread traffic across your own servers with a managed load balancer — health checks, round-robin distribution and automatic failover, billed monthly. Keep your app online even when a server isn't.
See detailsRound-robin traffic across as many of your servers as you like — scale out without touching DNS.
Continuous checks pull an unhealthy server out of rotation automatically and add it back when it recovers.
If a backend goes down, health checks route traffic to the healthy ones automatically — no manual intervention.
Simple flat monthly billing for the balancer itself. Add or remove backend servers anytime.
