Load Balancers enable horizontal scaling by distributing traffic across multiple backend instances to handle increased demand efficiently.
Yes. Vultr Load Balancers enable horizontal scaling by distributing traffic across multiple backend instances. When demand increases, you can deploy additional instances in the same region and attach them to the load balancer. The load balancer automatically begins routing client requests to the new instances, helping your application handle higher traffic volumes without downtime.
As traffic decreases, you can remove instances from the load balancer’s pool to optimize costs while maintaining performance. This elasticity ensures your application can scale smoothly in response to workload changes, while the built-in health checks guarantee that only healthy instances receive traffic.
