Section offers load balancing as part of our Edge Compute Platform, giving you the flexibility to customize your application delivery to fit the needs of your application. By using the open-source Varnish Cache for load balancing, you can build your own rules to specify how your load balancing behaves.
Section also provides you the ability to integrate your load balancing solution into your development workflow, including testing in a development environment and robust log management, metrics, and monitoring tools.
Load Balancing
Section provides a layer 7 load balancer to immediately route HTTP requests based on rules you set that can include request location, device or browser type, and cookies or headers. In addition, you can utilize our load balancer to randomly distribute requests to your origin servers so that no one server is overloaded.
Section has used VCL to create common load balancing scenarios that can be easily set up in your Section portal by editing your VCL files. Section provides Git-backed version control for easy configuration, and in-depth metrics and logs to show how each request was handled for quick diagnosis of issues.
With the combination of Section’s load balancer, Varnish Cache, and ELK stack logs, you can rest assured you will be able to easily handle traffic spikes and improve user experience.
