Manage Load Balancers

The list of created balancers is located inside the project - > Networking - > Load Balancers

There you can:

• Configure a balancer (the "Overview" option) 
• Rename a balancer (the "Edit" option) 
• Delete a balancer

To do it, select the necessary action on the selector on the right from the balancer.

Go to your project - > Networking - > Load balancers -> select the Overview option on the selector on the right from the chosen balancer.

In the drop-down window, you can edit existing listeners in the Load Balancer and also add new ones.

You can edit and delete listeners. Select the appropriate option on the selector on the right from the listener. 

In the editor, you can:

• Change the checking algorithm

• Parameters of connected Virtual Machines (including verification address, port, and weight)

• Enable and disable Virtual Machines from the load balancing pool

• Change the parameters in the Health Check section

Performance analysis

We’ve tested our Load Balancers to determine the performance of different flavors.

For each flavor, we’ve deployed the client in multithreading mode with 36 concurrent threads and 400 connections over the test duration of 30 seconds.

The results show:

• Throughput: The number of requests per second (RPS) a Load Balancer can handle under a number of simultaneous users’ requests.

• Latency: Response times for both HTTP and HTTPS traffic across different Load Balancer flavors.
