Cloud Load Balancing

Google Cloud Platform’s Cloud Load Balancing distributes traffic across servers using its global network. It supports HTTP(S), TCP/SSL, and UDP protocols while integrating with autoscaling features. This service helps manage incoming requests efficiently by routing them to healthy instances, ensuring that applications remain responsive and available to users regardless of the underlying infrastructure load or geographic location.

Choose this solution when you need scalable global traffic distribution on Google’s infrastructure. Be aware that there is no free tier available for this service. You must operate under a pay-as-you-go pricing model, meaning costs accumulate based on actual usage without any initial complimentary allowance to offset early expenses or low-volume testing periods.
