Distribute traffic across your apps and servers from one fixed IPv4 and IPv6 address. The load balancer runs on two VMs on different nodes, and the addresses move automatically if one fails.
You set up services and targets in Flux. We run the VMs, the failover and the certificates.
The master holds the IP addresses. If it fails, the standby takes over within seconds. You can see which VM is master, and switch yourself.
One IPv4 and one IPv6 address are included in the price. Point your domains here with A and AAAA records, and set reverse DNS from Flux.
HTTPS terminates TLS at the load balancer and forwards plain HTTP. HTTP adds X-Forwarded-For, and port 80 can redirect everything to HTTPS.
Check over TCP or HTTP, with a path, accepted status codes and text the response must contain. Targets that don't answer get no traffic.
Managed certificates from Let's Encrypt, validated over HTTP or automatically with DNS when the domain is in Gigahost DNS. Or upload your own.
Apps on the platform, your servers at Gigahost or any public IP address. Round robin or least connections.
A service listens on one port and forwards traffic to the targets. Changes take effect within seconds, without interruption.
Choose size and location, and optionally add the first service and target right away. The IP addresses appear as soon as the load balancer is created.
All sizes have two VMs with failover, one IPv4 and one IPv6 address and the same features.
For a handful of apps or servers behind one address.
For more services and steady traffic.
For many domains, targets and lots of traffic.
Prices excl. VAT. Billed by the hour, up to the monthly price.
The platform is built and run by the same people you talk to when you contact us.
Apps, databases and load balancers are managed from the same panel.
X-Forwarded-For, X-Forwarded-Proto and X-Forwarded-Port. For TCP you can turn on PROXY protocol v2, if the target is set up to accept it.
