# Intelligent Traffic Distribution

Distribute incoming traffic across multiple servers to ensure high availability, optimal performance, and seamless scaling for your applications.

## Real-Time Traffic Distribution

Watch how your load balancer intelligently distributes incoming requests across your backend servers for optimal performance.

Server 2 — 35%

Server 3 — 30%

## Enterprise-Grade Features

Everything you need to keep your applications fast, secure, and highly available.

### SSL Termination

Offload SSL/TLS processing from your backend servers. Automatic certificate management with Let's Encrypt or bring your own certificates.

### Health Checks

Continuously monitor backend server health with configurable HTTP, TCP, and ICMP checks. Automatically remove unhealthy servers from the pool.

### Sticky Sessions

Ensure users are consistently routed to the same backend server using cookie-based or IP-based session persistence.

### WebSocket Support

Full WebSocket and HTTP/2 support for real-time applications. Persistent connections are seamlessly maintained across your backends.

### Auto-Scaling

Automatically add or remove backend servers based on traffic load. Scale up during peaks and scale down to save costs.

### Private Network

Connect your load balancer to backend servers over a private network. Internal traffic stays off the public internet for lower latency and better security.

## Load Balancing Algorithms

Choose the algorithm that best fits your workload. Each distributes traffic differently across your backend servers.

### Round Robin

Distributes requests evenly across all servers in sequential order. Each server receives an equal share of traffic regardless of current load.

Server 1 25%

Server 2 25%

Server 3 25%

Server 4 25%

Best for: General-purpose workloads where all backend servers have similar capacity and request processing times.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about CubePath Load Balancers.

### How do I create a load balancer?

You can create a load balancer from the CubePath dashboard in just a few clicks. Select your region, configure your backend servers, choose a balancing algorithm, and your load balancer will be provisioned in seconds.

### What protocols are supported?

CubePath Load Balancers support HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, and UDP protocols. WebSocket connections are fully supported over HTTP/HTTPS, and HTTP/2 is enabled by default for HTTPS listeners.

### How do health checks work?

Health checks continuously monitor your backend servers by sending periodic requests (HTTP, TCP, or ICMP). If a server fails consecutive checks, it is automatically removed from the rotation. Once it recovers, it is re-added seamlessly.

### Can I use custom SSL certificates?

Yes. You can upload your own SSL/TLS certificates or use our automatic Let's Encrypt integration for free, auto-renewing certificates. Wildcard certificates are also supported.

### What's the maximum number of backends?

Each load balancer supports up to 100 backend servers. For larger deployments, you can chain multiple load balancers or contact our team for a custom configuration.

### Is traffic included?

Yes. Every load balancer plan includes a generous amount of traffic measured in TB. There are no per-request charges or hidden bandwidth fees.

## Ready to Scale Your Infrastructure?

Deploy a load balancer in seconds and start distributing traffic across your servers with zero downtime.
