Load Balancer Failover Tests

Load Balancer Failover Tests

Automate load balancer failover test approvals to ensure seamless traffic redirection and system reliability.

Why automate?

Load balancers distribute network traffic across multiple servers to prevent overload, ensure uptime, and enhance performance. Failover testing ensures that if one server fails, traffic is automatically redirected to an available server. However, unapproved or improperly scheduled failover tests can disrupt live services. Without structured approvals, failover tests may be performed during peak traffic hours, leading to unintended downtime or performance issues. Manual approvals often delay tests, impacting preparedness for real failures. Cflow helps to automate Load Balancer Failover Test Approvals, ensuring that every test is reviewed, approved, and scheduled properly, maintaining network stability and business continuity.

How Cflow Helps:

Approval-Based Test Execution

Cflow ensures that failover test requests are reviewed and approved before execution, preventing disruptions.

Scheduling Coordination for Minimal Impact

Approvals ensure that tests occur during low-traffic periods, reducing the risk of downtime.

Compliance with IT Continuity Policies

Cflow enforces policy-based approvals, ensuring all failover tests meet compliance and security guidelines.

Detailed Log of Test Approvals

Cflow records every approved test, enabling IT teams to track historical failover testing for audits and improvements.
