Your keys, your control
Terminate TLS where it belongs: on your own instances and clusters. The load balancer passes encrypted traffic straight through to your backends, and cert-manager handles certificates inside your cluster. Your keys never leave your environment.

Scale when you need to
Need more headroom? Scale your load balancer up to add capacity when traffic grows. You choose the size, so you only pay for what you've provisioned, with no surprise overage.

Practical applications
What you can build
From AI-powered apps to resilient web services, our load balancer is the foundation for your most ambitious projects.
Accelerate AI model inference
Create dedicated endpoints for high-throughput inference workloads. Keep latency low for user-facing AI applications and deliver a faster experience without babysitting the network.
Ensure high availability
Deploy applications users can rely on. Traffic routes around unhealthy nodes automatically, so your team can focus on building, not firefighting.
Simplify microservices communication
Securely connect services inside your Kubernetes cluster. Internal load balancers create a stable, high-performance communication layer that your microservices can depend on.
Trusted by top-tier teams worldwide
Serious power for serious workloads
We’re trusted by ambitious startups and major enterprises around the world to deliver scalable, sustainable infrastructure without the hidden costs or headaches of hyperscalers.
