AWS Load Balancers explained but make it actually make sense ?⚡
Ever wondered how AWS handles millions of requests? Let us break down Network Load Balancer vs Application Load Balancer in under 60 seconds!
? NLB operates at Layer 4 (Transport) - handles TCP/UDP traffic with ultra-low latency. Perfect for gaming and real-time apps!
? ALB operates at Layer 7 (Application) - understands HTTP/HTTPS and routes based on URL paths. Ideal for microservices!
The key difference? Layer 7 reads your actual HTTP requests, while Layer 4 only sees raw TCP packets.
