  • Supports inbound and outbound scenarios.
  • Provides low latency and high throughput.
  • Scales up to millions of flows for all TCP and UDP applications.
  • Distributes new inbound flows that arrive on the Load Balancer frontend to back-end pool instances, according to rules and health probes.
