About Azure Load Balancer
Load-balance internet and private network traffic with high performance and low latency. Instantly add scale to your applications and enable high availability. Load Balancer works across virtual machines, virtual machine scale sets, and IP addresses. Equipped for load-balancing network layer traffic when high performance and super-low latency are needed. Standard Load Balancer routes traffic within and across regions, and to availability zones for high resiliency. Create highly available and scalable apps in minutes with built-in application load balancing for cloud services and virtual machines. Load Balancer supports TCP/UDP-based protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, and SMTP, and protocols used for real-time voice and video messaging applications. Manage traffic between virtual machines inside your private virtual networks, or use it to create multiple-tiered hybrid applications.

AWS Elastic Load Balancing
Elastic Load Balancing automatically routes incoming application traffic across multiple destinations, such as Amazon EC2 instances, containers, IP addresses, Lambda functions, and virtual appliances. You can control the variable load of your application traffic in a single zone or in multiple Availability Zones. Elastic Load Balancing offers four types of load balancers that have the necessary level of high availability, automatic scalability, and security to make your applications fault tolerant. Elastic Load Balancing is part of the AWS network, with native knowledge of fault limits like AZ to keep your applications available in one region, without requiring Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB). ELB is also a fully managed service, which means you can focus on delivering applications and not installing fleets of load balancers. Capacity is automatically added and removed based on the utilization of the underlying application servers.
