Enhance Performance with
mCloud Load Balancing Solutions

Maximize scalability and reliability for your applications with mCloud's distributed Layer 4 and advanced Layer 7 load balancing services.

Introduction

Advanced Load Balancing Solutions for Scalability and Performance

Micron21’s mCloud platform offers two robust load balancing solutions to meet the needs of modern businesses: Distributed Layer 4 Load Balancer for seamless traffic distribution, and Advanced Layer 7 Load Balancer for application-aware routing and global traffic management.

Whether you're scaling out your virtual machine instances or optimizing your web application’s performance, mCloud Load Balancing has you covered.

 

Control & Security

Layer 4 Load Balancer

Layer 4 load balancing optimizes TCP/UDP traffic, enhances scalability, reduces latency, and improves performance by distributing requests across backend servers.

Transport Layer (Layer 4)

Focuses on TCP and UDP traffic, enabling protocol-agnostic load balancing.

Scalability

Distributes client requests to multiple backend servers, improving reliability and fault tolerance.

Minimized Latency

Our distributed model places load balancing closer to both clients and backend resources, reducing latency and enhancing throughput.

Improved Performance

Efficient resource utilization and network traffic management for better performance and scalability.

 

Control & Security

Layer 7 Load Balancer

For customers requiring more advanced, application-aware load balancing, mCloud offers A10 virtual load balancers for Layer 7 server load balancing (SLB) and global server load balancing (GSLB). This solution includes advanced features for enhanced performance, reliability, and scalability.

 

Layer 7 Application-Aware Routing

Makes routing decisions based on HTTPS headers, cookies, and application content.

Advanced Health Checks

Verifies service availability at the application level, not just network reachability.

SSL Offloading

Frees up server resources and improves performance by offloading SSL encryption tasks.

Connection Persistence

Ensures session stickiness, providing consistent user experiences through mechanisms like source IP, cookies, or headers.

Application Acceleration

Optimizes application delivery with features like caching, compression, and TCP optimization.

High Availability (HA)

Configurations available in active-active or active-standby for resilience, ensuring no single point of failure.

 

Reliable & Scalable Performance

Global Traffic Optimization for Reliable and Scalable Performance

Our load balancers optimize traffic distribution across multiple locations, ensuring high availability, disaster recovery, and seamless scalability for improved performance and user experience.

Global Traffic Distribution

If global application performance and availability are crucial for your business, the A10 Global Server Load Balancer (GSLB) feature is designed to optimize traffic distribution across multiple geographic locations.

  • DNS-Based Load Balancing – Directs users to the best-performing or closest data center based on latency, geography, or server health.
  • Disaster Recovery – Automatically routes traffic to backup locations in case of primary data center failures, ensuring continuous application availability.
 
 

Why This Matters

  • Improved Reliability – Automatically reroutes traffic to healthy backend servers or data centers during failure, enhancing uptime.
  • Scalable Infrastructure – mCloud Load Balancing scales seamlessly with your business needs, ensuring that applications can handle increasing traffic without compromising performance.
  • Enhanced User Experience – Ensure consistent, low-latency access for users by balancing traffic intelligently across your infrastructure.

Conclusion

Enable Scalability and Availability with Load Balancing

Whether you need basic Layer 4 traffic distribution or advanced Layer 7 application-aware routing, mCloud Load Balancing provides the tools and flexibility to optimize your web applications.

With features like global traffic distribution, SSL offloading, and high availability, mCloud ensures that your infrastructure can scale effectively while providing the best possible user experience.
