As a general rule, you'd choose an Application Load Balancer when you need a Layer 7 load balancer for your applications with HTTP(S) traffic. Now, to further help our users understand the different features available with Cloud Load Balancing, and help them quickly identify the best type of load balancer for their use-case, we're adopting a new naming convention.Ĭloud Load Balancing now offers two types of load balancers: Application Load Balancers and Network Load Balancers.
Over the past few years, we've undertaken several initiatives to bring greater consistency across all flavors of Cloud Load Balancing - for example, by making Envoy proxy the consistent data plane for all new load balancing features. We're announcing the rebranding of Cloud Load Balancing into two main types of load balancers: Application Load Balancers and Network Load Balancers.
