Balancing performance with simplicity and scale

The Load Balancer routes traffic from a single entry point to multiple backend servers, improving uptime and optimizing performance for websites, applications, and databases. Built with full redundancy from the start, it supports both TCP (Layer 4) and HTTP traffic, with HTTP delivered over the underlying TCP protocol. This ensures your workloads remain responsive and resilient. Configure everything directly in our control panel and scale your setup in minutes – no manual work, no downtime.
