Managed Load Balancer

Quickly build resilience and increase the capabilities of your application by employing load balancing. With an easy setup and flexible configuration, you could be running stronger than ever in minutes!

Simple, secure, resilient

Availability simplified

Simple setup

The intuitive Control Panel helps you get set up quick and easy or use our fully-featured API for both HTTP(S) and TCP applications.

Resilient by design

Load Balancer is built on our true and trusted infrastructure. Service critical applications can improve resilience with the two-node Production plan.

SSL for security

Generate SSL certificates dynamically or bring your own to easily enable HTTPS connectivity for secure communication.

Effortless excellence

Built for ease of use

Effortless delivery

Create a fixed point of entry to your application and never worry about updating DNS records again.

Flexible configuration

Configure front and backends exactly as you want. Keep your services and resources organised and private using our unlimited SDN Private Networks.

Network Transfer Pool enabled

Load Balancer benefits from our Network Transfer Pool allowing you to forget about data transfer costs and focus on developing your applications.

Quick to integrate

Plug-and-play with any existing SDN Private Network or easily set up new. Load Balancer fits great in front of any application or service.

Simple SSL

Hosting multiple secure domains couldn’t be simpler. Built-in certificate management lets you easily import existing SSL certificates which can then be assigned to the right frontend as needed.

Easy management

Be always on top of the load on your services and resource usage with the included health and connections monitoring.

Ideal solutions

Perfect for many use cases

Load balancing websites

The most common use case for Load Balancers is exactly what the name implies, distributing the incoming connections between 2 or more backend application servers. Using the customisable load balancing methods from roundrobin to least connection, you can make sure your application servers share the workload appropriately.

Building resilience

While common solutions of load balancing allow developers to build resilience in the backend, the load balancer itself can often become a single point of failure. Not so with UpCloud’s Load Balancer! Not only does the Load Balancer benefit from our N+1 redundancy, but it also allows running two concurrent Load Balancer nodes for the ultimate resilient cloud infrastructure!

Securing services

Load Balancer enables easy SSL usage via built-in certificate bundle management. Just drop in your SSL certificates and enable HTTPS connectivity. Furthermore, the frontend configuration rules allow fine-grain control of incoming requests akin to a firewall. And behind the Load Balancer, all traffic is secured using our SDN Private Networks.

Simply balanced pricing
