Customers can use the same AWS Console, APIs, and CLI to provision and manage ALBs on Outposts as they do today with ALBs in the Region.Īn Application Load Balancer supports HTTPS termination between the clients and the load balancer. Customers can also get notifications to help them navigate their load balancing related capacity needs. Customers can provision ALBs on supported instance types and the ALB will auto scale up to the capacity available on the rack to meet varying levels of application load without manual intervention. Customers also have the capability to choose their level of tolerance to suspicious requests based on their application architecture.Īpplication Load Balancer (ALB) supports AWS Outposts, a fully managed service that extends AWS infrastructure, services, and tools to virtually any datacenter, co-location space, or on-premises facility for a truly consistent hybrid experience. You can configure an Application Load Balancer to be Internet facing or create a load balancer without public IP addresses to serve as an internal (non-internet-facing) load balancer.ĪLB supports implementation of Desync protections based on the http_desync_guardian library With this new feature customer applications are protected from HTTP vulnerabilities due to Desync without making major compromises on availability and/or latency. When using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), you can create and manage security groups associated with Elastic Load Balancing to provide additional networking and security options.

You can load balance HTTP/HTTPS traffic to targets - Amazon EC2 instances, microservices, and containers based on request attributes (such as X-Forwarded-For headers).
