The most valuable feature of the solution is its pay-as-you-go model. You don't pay when you shut down the instances.

The most valuable feature of Amazon Elastic Load Balancing is scaling. We just have to enable the load balancer, set the minimal and maximum limits, and it will handle everything by itself.

The feature that I like the most is the scalability. The solutions I build often have many pieces, which are very complicated. If a client comes to me with a design, my developer has made this as a template or a cloud formation script. It's a design on paper, and I want it executed a certain way. I can do that quickly and repeatedly with AWS. That is a considerable advantage because I can take that template and do it five times in different zones. That is an excellent feature based on a template, et cetera.

The product automatically distributes our incoming traffic to multiple targets like EC2 instances, containers, and IP addresses in one or more availability zones. If one instance fails, the product automatically creates another instance. Security and monitoring for high-performance applications are some of the top features. We can perform health checks using the target keyword in ALB.

The solution's most valuable feature is the ease of use. It is more convenient to use compared to self-hosted load balancers.

It has very good features. It is very configurable. Security with TLS, et cetera is also very easy. 

It is good performance-wise, and the logging mechanism is also very good because we get the VPC log whenever a request comes. So, we can easily find out where the request is coming from.
