Internal Load Balancers

Note

This feature is not available in the standard deployment

Intranet load balancing is a service that distributes traffic on demand in the internal network, extending the throughput capacity of applications by distributing traffic to different back-end servers, and eliminating single points of failure in the system to improve the availability of applications.

Before start, you will need to complete the following actions:

  • Professional deployments (EMQX clusters) have been created on EMQX Cloud.
  • Create the vpc peer connection. All IPs mentioned below refer to the resource's internal IP.

Service activation

You can choose to enable the intranet load balancing service from the top menu bar - VAS or at the bottom of the deployment overview.
