Load Balancers Availability
Generated on 22 Oct 2026
DigitalOcean fully manages Regional Load Balancers and Global Load Balancers, ensuring they are highly available load balancing services. Load balancers distribute traffic to groups of backend resources in specific regions or across different regions, which prevents the health of a service from depending on the health of a single server, cluster, or region.
| Load Balancers | NYC1 | NYC2 | NYC3 | AMS3 | SFO2 | SFO3 | SGP1 | LON1 | FRA1 | TOR1 | BLR1 | SYD1 | ATL1 | RIC1 | MKC1 | MEM1 |

Droplets in a regional load balancer’s backend pool must be in the same region as the load balancer.
