What is Elastic Load Balancing (ELB)?

0:19

ELB automatically distributes incoming traffic across multiple targets (EC2 instances, containers, IPs) in one or more AZs. Three types: Application Load Balancer (HTTP/HTTPS, Layer 7), Network Load Balancer (TCP/UDP, Layer 4, ultra-low latency), and Gateway Load Balancer (third-party virtual appliances). ELB improves availability by routing around unhealthy targets.
