Is traffic between my servers charged?

No. Traffic within your private networks, and between Suburban services in the same region, is not charged as egress.

Can a load balancer terminate TLS?

Yes. Load balancers terminate TLS so that backend servers can serve plain HTTP on the private network. Health checks remove unresponsive servers from rotation.

Can I keep the same IP address when rebuilding a server?

Yes. Floating IP addresses can be detached from one instance and attached to another without any change to DNS.

How are firewall rules managed?

Security groups are created in the console or through the API and attached to instances. Inbound traffic is denied unless a rule permits it.

Getting Started

2.Define security group rules and place a load balancer in front of your instances.
3.Assign a floating IP address and point your DNS records to it.

Key Features

Private Networks

Production, staging and partner environments can be separated into isolated networks with your own address ranges.

Floating IP Addresses

A public IP address can be retained and reassigned to another instance during maintenance or failover.

Load Balancers

HTTP, HTTPS and TCP traffic is distributed across instances, with TLS termination and automatic removal of unhealthy servers.

Security Groups
