Implementing traffic manager can increase initial response time of site because it makes request route longer

What do you like best about the product?

Traffic manager allow redirecting users to appropriate endpoints based on different settings. We are using it to route users to national versions of site, depending of users location. It allows users to see information on their native language and minimize response time of web pages, because national sites are located in nearest datacenters. The main feature that entire routing is performed in a backgroud and all users could use single URL to access the site regardless of their location. The second great feature is failover option, so site remains available with the same URL regardless of it`s current location. We are using it for on-premise sites where Azure Site Recovery was configured for servers. URL remains live even after failover to Azure

Recommendations to others considering the product:

I can recommend to implement it if you have many national versions of your site, located internationally. This will make user access easier

What do you dislike about the product?

Working fine with web facing applications only and can`t be used for administrative work on resources. It also increases response time of your resources.

Traffic Manager acts as single point of access for different instances and location of your application, it redirects users to most appropriate endpoint according to it`s settings. You can send traffic to instance with closest location to user, or balance multiple requests between all endpoints, or send traffic to prioritized endpoint and redirect to secondary one, if primary is not available, so it acts as a part of high-availability solution. It also has monitoring capabilities, you are able to see which of your endpoints are currently available. Using traffic manager in failover mode with disaster recovery solutions making these easier to end users, as they can access single URL and not think where is your application is currently running. Solution is vary stable and easy to deploy and configure, it works with both Azure and on-premise environments, so implementation does not requires any changes in your current infrastructure

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Ensure that monitoring is configured correctly, or you can send your users to inaccessible endpoint

Availability monitoring works only with 200 OK responses from web server. No customizable port forwarding through traffic manages

Traafic manager is a very simple but powerful tool, that managing user connections to public facing resources. It can be used to direct users to most geographically close endpoint of your application, to direct all users to primary endpoint and switch to secondary one if primary in not available, also it can balance connections between several endpoints to avoid channel overload. It can work for both Azure or on-premise locations, provides availability monitoring for your endpoints. All endpoints remains available with only one URL. It can be used in conjunction with Azure Site Recovery, to make failovers completely transparent for end users. Users will access the same URL regardless of current active location of your resources.

Try using this instead public facing load balancer, it will save your costs
