Application Gateway Implementation with Azure

Authors(2) :-Minchala Sai Krishna, K. Padmanaban

You can control the amount of traffic going to your online applications with Azure Application Gateway, a load balancer for web traffic (OSI layer 7). Conventional load balancers route traffic based on source IP address and port to a destination IP address and port at the transport layer Application Gateways provide the ability to route requests based on additional information contained in the HTTP request, such as the host headers or URI path. For instance, traffic can be routed according to the incoming URL. You can thus direct traffic to a particular group of servers (referred to as a pool) that are set up for images if the incoming URL has the prefix /images. If the URL contains /video, that traffic is diverted to an additional optimized pool. You can set up host name or domain name routing for many web applications on the same application gateway using Application Gateway. It lets you join up to 100+ websites to a single application gateway, enabling you to create deployments with a more efficient topology. It is possible to route each website to a different backend pool. For instance, the IP address of the application gateway is pointed to by the three domains contoso.com, fabrikam.com, and adatum.com. Three multi-site listeners would be created, and each listener would be set up for the appropriate port and protocol.
