Keywords: load balancer, network, traffic
Differences vs Huawei
- Balancer types and listener features differ.
Migration to Huawei
- Map API/workflow stages, integration points, pipeline gates, and release controls. For AWS Elastic Load Balancing, the direct Huawei equivalence layer is ELB; validate feature-by-feature parity for control plane, data plane, and operational behavior before cutover.
- Use a composed Huawei migration pattern where needed: ELB + EIP + WAF. Treat ELB as the core equivalent capability and use the additional services to cover integration, security, observability, and governance gaps.
- Pricing model difference: AWS usually bills load balancer hours plus processed bytes/new connections/rule evaluations; Huawei usually bills CodeArts/APIG/DMS runtime or request volume plus artifact/storage usage. Recalculate TCO with peak load, request volume, retention period, and cross-region/interconnect traffic before production migration.
