- **CLBs and ALBs have many IPs:** Internally, an AWS load balancer is simply a collection of individual software load balancers hosted within EC2, with DNS load balancing traffic among them. The pool can contain many IPs, at least one per availability zone, and depending on traffic levels. They also support SSL termination, which is very convenient. - **CLBs and ALBs have many IPs:** Internally, an AWS load balancer is simply a collection of individual software load balancers hosted within EC2, with DNS load balancing traffic among them.

- **Scaling:** CLBs and ALBs can scale to very high throughput, but scaling up is not instantaneous. If you’re expecting to be hit with a lot of traffic suddenly, it can make sense to load test them so they scale up in advance. You can also [contact Amazon](http://aws.amazon.com/articles/1636185810492479) and have them “pre-warm” the load balancer. - **Scaling:** CLBs and ALBs can scale to very high throughput, but scaling up is not instantaneous.

- **Client IPs:** In general, if servers want to know true client IP addresses, load balancers must forward this information somehow. CLBs add the standard [X-Forwarded-For](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Forwarded-For) header. When using an CLB as an HTTP load balancer, it’s possible to get the client’s IP address from this. - **Client IPs:** In general, if servers want to know true client IP addresses, load balancers must forward this information somehow.

- **Using load balancers when deploying:** One common pattern is to swap instances in the load balancer after spinning up a new stack with your latest version, keep old stack running for one or two hours, and either flip back to old stack in case of problems or tear down it down. - **Using load balancers when deploying:** One common pattern is to swap instances in the load balancer after spinning up a new stack with your latest version, keep old stack running for one or two hours, and either flip back to old stack in case of problems or tear it down.
