Extending local traffic management load balancing to Layer 4 with Spectrum

In 2023, Cloudflare introduced a new local traffic management (LTM) solution for load balancing HTTP(S) traffic between private or internal servers within region-specific data centers. The company has now extended these LTM capabilities to non-HTTP(S) traffic by integrating Cloudflare Spectrum, Cloudflare Tunnels, and Cloudflare load balancers. This feature is available for enterprise customers and allows them to use Cloudflare load balancers for all TCP and UDP traffic destined for private IP addresses, eliminating the need for expensive on-premise load balancers.
