Intelligent Load Balancing
Built for Engineers
Distribute traffic intelligently across your servers, VPS, and cloud instances with Layer 4, Layer 7, and Global Server Load Balancing — with instant health-check failover and SSL termination built in.
Powers traffic for teams using
Every Layer.
Every Protocol.
From raw TCP throughput to intelligent HTTP routing — Load Nerd handles every balancing scenario your infrastructure demands.
Transport Layer Balancing
Ultra-fast TCP/UDP load balancing with zero content inspection overhead. Routes packets purely by IP and port — ideal for databases, game servers, raw VPS traffic, and any non-HTTP workload that demands maximum throughput.
- TCP & UDP protocol support
- Source IP hash session stickiness
- Port-based routing rules
- Sub-millisecond packet forwarding
- TCP health checks with auto-failover
- Direct Server Return (DSR) mode
Application Layer Balancing
Intelligent HTTP/HTTPS routing with full content inspection. Route by URL path, headers, cookies, or hostname. Terminate SSL at the edge — freeing your backends to focus on application logic.
- HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, gRPC & WebSocket
- SSL/TLS termination & offloading
- Path-based & host-based routing
- Cookie-based session persistence
- Header injection & URL rewriting
- HTTP health checks with body validation
- WAF integration & rate limiting
Global Server Load Balancing
Distribute traffic across multiple data centres, cloud regions, and continents with intelligent DNS-based steering. Automatically route users to the nearest healthy node — achieve true geo-redundancy with automated cross-region failover.
- Geo-proximity DNS routing
- Multi-region active/active clusters
- Weighted traffic distribution
- Automated region failover
- Latency-based routing
- 40+ global Points of Presence
Built for Zero-Downtime Infrastructure
Every feature an infrastructure engineer needs — packaged into an intelligent, always-on load balancing platform.
Real-Time Health Checks
Configurable TCP, HTTP, and HTTPS health checks with custom response validation. Unhealthy nodes are instantly removed and reinstated when recovered.
SSL/TLS Termination
Offload SSL decryption to the load balancer. Free your backend servers from encryption overhead — supports TLS 1.2/1.3, SNI, and wildcard certificates.
Session Persistence
Cookie-based, source-IP hash, and server affinity stickiness. Keep user sessions tied to the same backend — essential for stateful applications and shopping carts.
Instant Failover
Sub-millisecond automatic failover when a backend node fails. Traffic is redistributed to healthy instances before your users notice any disruption.
Multiple LB Algorithms
Round-robin, least-connections, weighted, IP hash, and random. Choose the right distribution algorithm per backend pool for optimal resource utilisation.
Live Traffic Dashboard
Real-time visibility into request rates, connection counts, backend health, latency percentiles, and error rates — all in one unified control panel.
DDoS Protection
Network-level and application-layer DDoS mitigation integrated directly into the load balancer. Absorb volumetric attacks and block malicious traffic before it reaches your backends.
Kubernetes & Docker Ready
Native Kubernetes Ingress support, Helm charts, and Docker Compose integration. Deploy Load Nerd as a sidecar, standalone, or cloud-managed service.
API-First Configuration
Full REST API and Terraform provider for infrastructure-as-code workflows. Manage every load balancer config programmatically — no manual UI required.
Transparent Pricing
No per-request fees. No surprise bandwidth bills. Flat monthly pricing that scales with your infrastructure — not your traffic.

Trusted by Engineers
From solo developers to platform engineering teams — here's what they say.
"We replaced our self-managed HAProxy setup with Load Nerd Pro. The Layer 7 path-based routing and automatic SSL termination saved us two weeks of engineering time. Zero issues in 8 months."
"The sub-millisecond failover is real. We had a VPS node drop at 2AM during peak traffic — Load Nerd redistributed instantly. Our monitoring didn't even trigger a P1 alert. Incredible."
"GSLB across 3 AWS regions with geo-routing for our EU and US users. Setup took 20 minutes with the Terraform provider. Our p99 latency dropped by 38% the same day."
"Cookie-based session persistence was exactly what our e-commerce checkout needed. No more cart abandonment from session drops. The dashboard is genuinely brilliant — real-time and clean."
"Running 30 Docker containers across 4 VPS nodes — Load Nerd's Kubernetes-ready config just worked. The health checks with HTTP body validation give me confidence I never had with bare nginx."
"The Starter plan at $29/month does everything I need for my SaaS MVP. TCP health checks, round-robin across 3 VPS instances, and the support team answered my config question in 8 minutes."
Layer 4 operates at the Transport layer — it routes traffic based solely on IP addresses and port numbers without inspecting packet content. This makes it extremely fast and protocol-agnostic, ideal for databases, game servers, and raw TCP/UDP workloads. Layer 7 operates at the Application layer, inspecting HTTP headers, URLs, and cookies to make intelligent routing decisions — enabling path-based routing, SSL termination, session persistence, and WAF integration. Load Nerd supports both, and you can combine them in the same deployment.
Load Nerd performs health checks every 1–5 seconds (configurable). When a backend fails 2 consecutive checks (configurable threshold), it is immediately removed from the pool and traffic is redistributed to healthy nodes. The entire failover process typically completes in under 1 second — well below the threshold users would perceive as downtime.
Absolutely. Load Nerd is fully provider-agnostic. You can add any server — DigitalOcean Droplets, Hetzner VPS, AWS EC2, Vultr, Linode, bare-metal servers, or on-premises machines — as backend targets. As long as the server is reachable by IP and port, Load Nerd can balance traffic to it.
Yes, on Pro and Enterprise plans. Load Nerd handles SSL/TLS termination at the load balancer edge — decrypting HTTPS traffic before it reaches your backends. We support automatic Let's Encrypt certificate provisioning, custom certificates, wildcard certs, SNI multi-domain support, and TLS 1.2/1.3. Your backends can receive plain HTTP traffic, eliminating their SSL overhead entirely.
Load Nerd supports Round Robin, Weighted Round Robin, Least Connections, Weighted Least Connections, Source IP Hash, Random, and for Layer 7: URL hash and cookie-based persistence. You can configure different algorithms per backend pool and switch them live without restarting the load balancer.
