About Google Cloud Load Balancer
Scale your applications on Compute Engine from zero to full throttle with Cloud Load Balancing, with no pre-warming needed. Distribute your load-balanced compute resources in single or multiple regions—close to your users—and to meet your high availability requirements. Cloud Load Balancing can put your resources behind a single anycast IP and scale your resources up or down with intelligent autoscaling. Cloud Load Balancing comes in a variety of flavors and is integrated with Cloud CDN for optimal application and content delivery. With Cloud Load Balancing, a single anycast IP front-ends all your backend instances in regions around the world. It provides cross-region load balancing, including automatic multi-region failover, which gently moves traffic in fractions if backends become unhealthy. In contrast to DNS-based global load balancing solutions, Cloud Load Balancing reacts instantaneously to changes in users, traffic, network, backend health, and other related conditions.

Alibaba Cloud Server Load Balancer (SLB)
Server Load Balancer (SLB) provides disaster recovery at four levels for high availability. CLB and ALB support built-in Anti-DDoS services to ensure business security. In addition, you can integrate ALB with WAF in the console to ensure security at the application layer. ALB and CLB support cloud-native networks. ALB is integrated with other cloud-native services, such as Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK), Serverless App Engine (SAE), and Kubernetes, and functions as a cloud-native gateway to distribute inbound network traffic. Monitors the condition of backend servers regularly. SLB does not distribute network traffic to unhealthy backend servers to ensure availability. Server Load Balancer (SLB) supports cluster deployment and session synchronization. You can perform hot upgrades and monitor the health and performance of machines in real-time. Supports multi-zone deployment in specific regions to provide zone-disaster recovery.
