Description: The Traffic Management Policy in cloud computing refers to a set of guidelines and strategies designed to manage and optimize the flow of traffic to an application’s or service’s resources. This policy allows system administrators and solution architects to direct user requests to different resources, such as web servers, applications, or databases, efficiently and effectively. Through various configurations, such as latency-based routing, geolocation, or health checks, traffic management services can ensure that users are directed to the most appropriate resource, thereby improving user experience and service availability. Additionally, the traffic management policy enables the implementation of disaster recovery strategies and load balancing, ensuring that traffic is evenly distributed among multiple instances and that, in case of failures, it is automatically redirected to alternative resources. In summary, this policy is essential for maintaining operational efficiency and application resilience in the cloud.
