Abstract
Systems and methods for managing network traffic routing are described. The system receives network traffic from external-facing load balancers at a gateway of a distributed network application. The network traffic includes one or more data requests. The system inspects a data request of the one or more data requests to determine a context of the data request. The system routes the network traffic from the external-facing load balancers to the gateway based on a geographic location of an origin of the network traffic. Finally, the system routes, based on the context of the data request corresponding to data stored at a database, the data request from the gateway to a first internal-facing load balancer of a plurality of internal-facing load balancers associated with a first application server of a plurality of application servers having a closest geographic proximity to the database.
