Private Network Load Balancing steers traffic within a data center or geographic location. A Private Network Load Balancer can be responsible for load balancing, SSL/TLS offloading, content switching, and other application delivery functions. Private Network Load Balancing ensures efficient distribution of client requests across multiple endpoints to improve performance and ensure high availability. Private Network Load Balancers are usually placed inside private networks and are used to load balance publicly or privately accessible resources. In Figure 5 below, the GTM load balancer has selected the Europe data center to direct a request to the Europe data center’s Private Network Load Balancer which will then steer it to the appropriate endpoint.

Cloudflare has offered cloud-based GTM since 2016 and started adding Private Network Load Balancing capabilities in 2023. This section will review the entire Cloudflare Load Balancing architecture and dive deep into the different configurations and options available. First, however, it's important to understand the benefits that Cloudflare Load Balancers have simply by running on Cloudflare’s global network.

Usually, GTM and Private Network Load Balancers are either separate hardware or separate SaaS (GTM) and hardware Private Network Load Balancing components. Cloudflare’s GTM and Private Network Load Balancing capabilities are combined into a single SaaS offering which greatly simplifies configuration and management. There is no need to create a GTM load balancer and steer traffic to more local Private Network Load Balancers. All endpoints can be directly connected to Cloudflare and traffic is steered to the correct region, data center, and endpoint all from a single load balancer configuration. While the concepts of GTM and Private Network Load Balancing features will persist, their implementation in Cloudflare will be done in a way that keeps load balancer configurations as simple and straightforward as possible. Figure 10 illustrates how global traffic can be steered from any geographic region to a specific endpoint as needed.
