Getting Started with Load Balancers

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.


Just the essentials to go from zero to working in a few minutes.
Use the official command-line client for DigitalOcean’s API to create and configure a load balancer for multiple backend web servers.
