Learn how Azure load balancers distribute traffic across backend servers, act as a single contact point for virtual machines, and handle internal traffic with health probes, port forwarding, and IPv6.
Explore different load balancer types, compare standard and basic options, and learn why production environments should choose the standard load balancer for more configuration and features.
Discover the key components of an Azure load balancer, including front end IP configuration, backend pool (via NIC or IP address), health checks, and routing rules that map ports.
Create two virtual machines in a virtual network, enable IIS on both, and configure a load balancer with frontend IP, backend pool, and health probe to balance traffic.
Create a public standard load balancer, attach two virtual machines, configure a front-end IP and back-end pool, add health probes, and test failover between the machines.
Azure Front Door is a modern cloud content delivery network that delivers high performance, global https delivery, and a secure user experience for content and apps.
Create and configure Azure Front Door to load balance traffic across East West and West US app services, set origin groups, health probes, routing rules, and a WAF policy.
Shows how to enable the web application firewall, switch to prevention mode, and use default and custom rules to block cross-site scripting, SQL injection, and rate or IP restrictions.
Learn how Azure Traffic Manager, a DNS-based load balancer, distributes global traffic across regions using routing methods like priority, weighted, performance, geographic, multi value, and subnet routing.
Explore how to create and configure Azure Traffic Manager, add App Service endpoints, and test routing methods—performance, weighted, priority, and geographic region redirects.
In this course I'll will take you to Azure Load balancing technique which are available.
1. Azure Load Balancer - An Azure load balancer is a Layer-4 (TCP, UDP) load balancer that provides high availability by distributing incoming traffic among healthy VMs. A load balancer health probe monitors a given port on each VM and only distributes traffic to an operational VM.
2. Azure Traffic Manager - Azure Traffic Manager supports six traffic-routing methods to determine how to route network traffic to the various service endpoints. For any profile, Traffic Manager applies the traffic-routing method associated to it to each DNS query it receives. The traffic-routing method determines which endpoint is returned in the DNS response. The following traffic routing methods are available in Traffic Manager: Priority: Weighted: Performance: Geographic: Multivalue: Subnet:
