This section discusses integrating Avi Load Balancer with Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Avi Load Balancer offers elastic application services that extend beyond load balancing to deliver real-time application and security insights, simplify troubleshooting, auto-scale predictively, and enable developer self-service and automation in Amazon Web Services. The Avi Load Balancer Platform has the following three core components:

  • The Avi Load Balancer Controller analyzes traffic and, based on real-time analytics, can scale out/scale in VS (in AWS, VS autoscaling capabilities is limited) to load-balance traffic that varies over time.

  • SEs handle all data plane operations within Avi Load Balancer by receiving and executing instructions from the Controller. The SEs perform load balancing and handle client and server traffic.

  • Avi Load Balancer admin console provides role-based access to control, manage, and monitor applications.
