The [Azure Application Gateway](/azure/application-gateway/overview) processes network traffic to web apps hosted on a pool of web servers. The processing performed by Azure Application Gateway includes load balancing HTTP traffic and inspecting traffic using a web application firewall. This type of routing is known as application layer (OSI layer 7) load balancing. Azure Application Gateway includes the following features:
