Application Load Balancing

Distribute traffic efficiently across servers using NGINX, HAProxy, or cloud load balancers to ensure uptime and consistent performance.

Enable Load Balancing

Overview

As traffic grows, so does the need for stability and speed. GullySystem configures intelligent load balancing across your infrastructure to ensure high availability, reduce downtime, and deliver a seamless user experience—even during peak demand.

Benefits

Improved Uptime

Automatically route traffic to healthy servers and avoid downtime with intelligent failover and redundancy setups.

Optimised Performance

Distribute workloads evenly across servers or containers to reduce latency and speed up response times under load.

Scalable Architecture

Handle more users without changing application code by simply adding backend servers behind a load balancer.

Fault Tolerance & Failover

Detect server failure and reroute traffic to backup nodes, ensuring continuous availability and minimal disruption.

Flexible Routing Logic

Use rules like round-robin, IP hash, or least connections to route users to the best server based on traffic patterns.

Cost Efficiency

Reduce infrastructure waste by dynamically scaling and balancing traffic, using only the resources needed at a time.

What’s Included

Load Balancer Setup

Deploy NGINX, HAProxy, AWS ELB, Azure Load Balancer, or GCP Load Balancer based on your infrastructure.

Health Checks Configuration

Monitor backend server health with custom checks and remove unresponsive nodes automatically.

Traffic Routing Rules

Implement strategies like round-robin, weighted distribution, or geo-based routing for smart traffic control.

SSL Termination Support

Offload SSL/TLS processing at the load balancer to reduce CPU overhead on your application servers.

Session Persistence Setup

Enable sticky sessions or cookie-based routing to maintain session consistency for stateful applications.

Auto-Scaling Integration

Link load balancing with auto-scaling groups to dynamically add or remove backend instances as traffic fluctuates.

Tools & Technologies We Use

Load Balancers

NGINX, HAProxy, Traefik, AWS ELB/ALB, Azure Load Balancer, GCP Load Balancer, Cloudflare Load Balancing.

Monitoring Tools

Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, Datadog, and New Relic for tracking server health and load distribution.

SSL Management

Let’s Encrypt, AWS ACM, custom SSL certs for HTTPS termination and secure load balancing setup.

Cloud Platforms

AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean, and hybrid environments for flexible infrastructure balancing.

DevOps Tools

Terraform, Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes integrations for infrastructure-as-code and containerised deployments.

Use Cases

SaaS Platform with Growing Users

Distribute frontend and backend loads across multiple app servers to maintain consistent experience as users increase.

E-commerce Peak Load Handling

Manage Black Friday or flash sale traffic spikes by balancing traffic across replicated services and cache nodes.

Web App Container Orchestration

Route traffic between Kubernetes pods or Docker containers for microservices using layer 7 (application-level) routing.

API Gateway Redundancy

Balance API calls between multiple backend instances with automated health checks and connection pooling.

Enterprise Multi-Region Deployment

Geo-route users to the nearest region or datacenter to minimise latency and balance usage across global infrastructure.

Disaster Recovery Configuration

Reroute traffic to backup regions or servers during primary site failure for business continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions

We support L4 (transport-level), L7 (application-level), global DNS-based, and geo-load balancing depending on the needs.

Yes. We support both web applications (HTTP/HTTPS) and TCP-based apps like MySQL, Redis, or FTP behind load balancers.

Absolutely. We configure secure HTTPS termination at the load balancer with industry-standard TLS and manage certificates.

No. Proper configuration ensures that URLs, headers, and canonical tags remain consistent across balanced endpoints.

Yes. We can load balance across both on-prem and cloud environments using VPNs and cloud-native routing tools.

Balance the load. Boost reliability. GullySystem’s Application Load Balancing ensures high performance and uninterrupted access for your growing user base.
