Hi HN,I've been working on ZoneHero for the past year after being frustrated with the high costs of running load balancers across multiple Availability Zones in AWS. If you've managed large-scale applications on AWS, you've likely noticed that cross-AZ data transfer can become unpleasantly expensive.ZoneHero is a managed control plane for load balancing that runs Envoy proxies (which run in your VPC, we maintain them) with a custom cross-AZ load balancing algorithm. The key difference from AWS ALB is that ZoneHero only crosses AZ boundaries when necessary, automatically directing traffic to instances in the same AZ when possible. This reduces cross-AZ data transfer to almost nothing, directl

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

Its current recorded stage is Show HN launch.
