"Essential Traffic Distribution and Smart Routing with AWS Elastic Load Balancer"

4.5/5

What do you like best about AWS Elastic Load Balancing?

AWS Elastic Load Balancer has been an essential part of our cloud infrastructure for distributing incoming traffic across multiple EC2 instances.

The Application Load Balancer (ALB) provided advanced routing capabilities based on URL paths and host headers which helped us efficiently manage our microservices architecture.

The seamless integration with AWS Auto Scaling ensured that our application could automatically handle traffic spikes without any manual intervention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Elastic Load Balancing?

The pricing can be confusing as you are charged separately for Load Balancer Capacity Units (LCUs) which makes it difficult to estimate costs accurately upfront.

The initial configuration of listener rules and target groups can be complex for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Elastic Load Balancing solving and how is that benefiting you?

AWS Elastic Load Balancer helped us achieve high availability and fault tolerance for our web applications by distributing traffic evenly across multiple instances in different availability zones.

It eliminated single points of failure in our infrastructure and ensured our application remained accessible even when individual instances went down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
