Load Balancer means Redundancy

24/7 Availability? Resilient Fault Tolerance? Load balancing increases the availability and fault tolerance of the application or services on your instances.

Load Balancers
High Availability. Fault Tolerance.

Load balancing increases the availability and fault tolerance of the application on your instance. Add redundancy to your web application or to handle more web traffic.

We focus on creating a highly available & fault tolerance environment

Load balancer distributes incoming web traffic among multiple instances, in multiple Availability Zones. For example, if you have an image-heavy website, you can load balance the image requests with the other page requests. That way, your pages load faster and your users are happier.

HTTP|HTTPS|TLS

Load balancers - handle unencrypted (HTTP) traffic requests through port 80. Activate HTTPS encryption by attaching a validated SSL/TLS certificate to your load balancer.

HTTP to HTTPS redirection — Activate HTTP to HTTPS redirection to automatically redirect HTTP requests to an HTTPS encrypted connection.

TLS security policies — Configure a TLS security policy on your load balancer.

HEALTH CHECK

Default, health checks are performed on the attached instances at the root of the web application that is running on them. The health checks monitor the health of the instances so that the load balancer can send requests only to the healthy instances.

SESSION PERSISTENCE

Configure session persistence if you're storing session information locally in your website visitors' browsers. For example, you might be running a Magento e-commerce application with a shopping cart on your load-balanced instances. If your website visitors add items to their shopping carts, and then end their sessions, when they come back, the shopping cart items will still be there if you configured session persistence.

When to use load balancers

You should use a load balancer when you have a website that has occasional spikes in traffic or hosts content that can create a lot of load on an instance when many visitors are using it at once. For example, if you have an image-heavy website, you can load balance the image requests with the other page requests. That way, your pages load faster and your users are happier. You can use a load balancer to create a highly available website. High availability refers to how long your website or application stays up over a given time period. If you have ever experienced a site outage, then a load balancer might help you have more uptime. You can use a load balancer to make your application highly available by adding target instances that are distributed across multiple Availability Zones. Fault tolerance is a related concept. If your site continues to function even after one of your instances or your database fails, it is considered tolerant. A load balancer can help you create a fault tolerant application or website.
