The Edge Load Balancing module allows you to specify groups of data centers that implement load balancing, session persistence, and real-time dynamic failover. Enabling ELB routes requests contextually based on location, device, or network, along with optional rules you specify.
This behavior specifies details about a data center, and needs to be paired in the same rule with an edge_load_balancing_origin
behavior, which specifies its origin. An origin is an abstraction that helps group a logical set of a website or application. It potentially includes information about many data centers and cloud providers, as well as many end points or IP addresses for each data center. More than one data center can thus refer to the same origin.
