    FortiADC

    FortiADC

    Fortinet

    FortiGSLB quickly and securely delivers. Applications anywhere. Horizontal scalability is a key factor when it comes to designing and deploying internet-based services and solutions for enterprise and carrier networks. These organizations must be able to quickly and easily add new network resources and deploy cloud-based applications to ensure business continuity as well as smooth disaster recovery in the event of data center or server failure. Yet, if internet connectivity or security is unreliable, these efforts are often stalled. Without this flexibility, business demands often force enterprises to upgrade to bigger and more powerful hardware devices to manage these capacity challenges. These upgrades can be costly and add significantly to the total cost of ownership (TCO) without addressing the issues of failover and service availability.

    IBM Load Balancer
    As strain increases on a website or business application, eventually, a single server cannot support the full workload. To meet demand, organizations spread the workload over multiple servers called "load balancing", this practice prevents a single server from becoming overworked, which could cause it to slow down, drop requests, and even crash. Load balancing lets you evenly distribute network traffic to prevent failure caused by overloading a particular resource. This strategy improves the performance and availability of applications, websites, databases, and other computing resources. It also helps process user requests quickly and accurately. From a user perspective, load balancing acts as an invisible facilitator that sits between a client and a group of servers, ensuring connection requests don’t get lost. Without load balancing, applications, websites, databases, and online services would likely fail when demand gets too high.

You pay for the number of load balancers and the amount of incoming traffic. Outgoing traffic is charged the same as other Yandex Cloud services. Load balancers distribute load based on the client address and port, resource availability, and network protocol. If the instance group parameters or members change, the load balancer adjusts automatically. When incoming traffic changes abruptly, you don’t need to reconfigure the load balancers.
