Traffic Management

Traffic management virtual team manages Application Infrastructure’s traffic management environment. The traffic management environment is designed to facilitate application traffic to balance load to multiple application instances and provide access to working application instances in the event of an application component failure. The environment is composed of hardware-based load balancer and intelligent name service appliances.  

Load Balancing

As shown in the diagram below, the traffic management environment can balance client connections to multiple application instances in order to distribute load and provide better performance.

Fail-Over

A benefit to load balancing is the ability to direct client traffic to working application instances in the event that a single application instance becomes unavailable for any reason. We can do this not only between application instances in the same data center but also between data centers.
