There’s a powerful new enhancement to Vultr Load Balancers: global load balancing capabilities.
Vultr Load Balancers have always offered secure and reliable traffic distribution within a single data center region. With the addition of Global Load Balancers, you can seamlessly distribute server requests across multiple regions worldwide. This ensures faster response times and high availability, even during a regional network outage.
Why global load balancing matters
Global Load Balancers take traffic optimization to the next level by automatically directing requests to the geographically nearest server. This results in:
- Lower latency for users, enhancing their experience.
- Improved performance through faster response times.
- High availability to ensure your services remain operational, even if one region faces interruptions in availability.
With Vultr’s 32 global data center regions reaching 90% of the world’s population in just 2–40 milliseconds, there’s always a region close to your customers.
Getting started with Vultr Global Load Balancers
Adding global load balancing is simple:
- Navigate to your desired load balancer in the my.vultr control panel.
- Select the three dots on the right and click Manage.
- Go to the Resources table and add a location by clicking on the + sign.
4. Deploy an additional region with a single click!
Global Load Balancers can be added to each data center region outside of your original load balancer region, providing exceptional flexibility.
Transparent pricing you can count on
Global Load Balancers are billed at the same rate per region as the original load balancer. Like the original, they are bandwidth-neutral, meaning only the bandwidth used by your attached instances is counted for billing purposes. This ensures predictable and transparent expenses.
