Azure Front Door. Azure Front Door is a global Layer 7 load balancer and Content Delivery Network (CDN). It routes user traffic to the nearest healthy backend region using Microsoft's global edge network (Anycast), and caches static content at the edge. Traffic Manager does DNS-based global routing but lacks edge caching and SSL offloading.
