Vultr DNS Load Balancing | All About

Did you know that Vultr DNS Load Balancing lets us distribute traffic across multiple servers or instances by configuring DNS records?

Let’s take a look at how to set up DNS load balancing on Vultr:

1. 1. To begin with, we have to sign in to our Vultr Account.
   2. Then, head to Compute and choose High Availability DNS from the dropdown menu.
   3. After that, click the Create Group button and set up a new High Availability DNS group.
   4. Now, we have to configure different DNS records in the High Availability DNS group settings to define how traffic should be distributed.
   5. Our experts recommend using A or AAAA records for load balancing to point to multiple server IP addresses.
   6. Then, it is time to add the IP addresses or hostnames of the servers or instances that we want to load balance traffic to.
   7. Next, we can opt to specify a monitoring IP or URL to check server health.
   8. In case a server fails the health check, Vultr’s DNS service can automatically route traffic away from the unhealthy server.
   9. Then, we have to adjust the TTL for our DNS records if needed.
   10. In order to start using Vultr’s High Availability DNS, we have to update our domain’s nameservers to the ones offered by Vultr.
   11. Now, we have to test the load balancing and monitor its performance.

Furthermore, we can update our High Availability DNS configuration to include additional servers or remove unhealthy ones as our infrastructure changes.
