Alibaba Cloud Server Load Balancer (SLB)
Server Load Balancer (SLB) provides disaster recovery at four levels for high availability. CLB and ALB support built-in Anti-DDoS services to ensure business security. In addition, you can integrate ALB with WAF in the console to ensure security at the application layer. ALB and CLB support cloud-native networks. ALB is integrated with other cloud-native services, such as Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK), Serverless App Engine (SAE), and Kubernetes, and functions as a cloud-native gateway to distribute inbound network traffic. Monitors the condition of backend servers regularly. SLB does not distribute network traffic to unhealthy backend servers to ensure availability. Server Load Balancer (SLB) supports cluster deployment and session synchronization. You can perform hot upgrades and monitor the health and performance of machines in real-time. Supports multi-zone deployment in specific regions to provide zone-disaster recovery.
