Yes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Application Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Azure Application Gateway probes backend servers to check their health status and to check whether they're ready to serve requests. Users can also create custom probes to mention the host name, the path to be probed, and the status codes to be accepted as Healthy. In each case, if the backend server doesn't respond successfully, Application Gateway marks the server as Unhealthy and stops forwarding requests to the server. After the server starts responding successfully, Application Gateway resumes forwarding the requests
