Dear Tencent Cloud user,
For a better service, we are going to upgrade the architecture of Tencent Cloud Load Balancer (CLB) starting from March 6, 2023 at 00:00:00 (UTC+8). After the upgrade, the public network CLB service will be delivered through domain names, and VIPs may change dynamically with business requests and will no longer be displayed in the console.
Existing users registered before the upgrade can choose to use the original CLB service, or try the upgraded CLB service by applying for beta test or upgrading existing instances.
CLB Service Comparison Before and After the Upgrade
|
SLA | 99.99% | 99.95% |
Domain names supported | Yes | No |
Automatic VIP scaling supported | Yes | No |
VIP changes | VIPs may change dynamically with business requests and will no longer be displayed in the console. | VIPs are fixed. |
Health check source IP | 100.64.0.0/10 IP range by default, helping prevent IP conflicts | CLB instance VIP by default, which can be switched to the 100.64.0.0/10 IP range |
Directions for Trying the Upgraded CLB Service
Note:
These directions are intended for existing users registered before the upgrade. For new CLB users registered after the upgrade, the upgraded CLB service is used by default.
Method 1: Apply for beta test and purchase upgraded instances based on your use scenarios.
Optional upgrade to domain name-based CLB to apply for beta test in transition mode. After the application is approved, create a CLB instance and choose the dynamic IP mode. The created instance provides the upgraded CLB service. Note:
In the beta test, you can no longer create a CLB instance with a fixed IP address.
Preparations
1. Configure your business service to be accessible through CNAME resolution.
Impact
The upgrade does not affect the forwarding service of CLB or change the usage fee.
After the upgrade, CLB implements automatic VIP scaling based on business requests. VIPs change dynamically and will no longer be displayed in the console.
After the upgrade, the health check source IP of CLB uses the 100.64.0.0/10 IP range by default. For more information, see Changing Health Check Source IP. After the upgrade, rollback is not supported.
