Balancer (Beta)
Balancer routes HTTP, TCP and UDP traffic to your origins. You configure load balancers, select origins and apply traffic policies through the API.
Note: Balancer is in beta. Endpoints, fields and behavior may change before general availability, and the feature must be enabled on your account before use. Contact your NetActuate account manager to request access.
