Analytics

Using load balancing analytics, you can:

• Evaluate traffic flow.
• Assess the health status of endpoints in your pools.
• Review changes in pools and pool health over time.

Note

Load balancing analytics are only available to customers on paid plans (Pro, Business, and Enterprise).

Dashboard Analytics

Overview metrics

To view Overview metrics for your load balancer, go to Traffic > Load Balancing Analytics.

These metrics show the number of requests routed to specific pools within a load balancer, helping you:

• Evaluate the effects of adding or removing a pool.
• Decide when to create new pools.
• Plan for peak traffic demands and future infrastructure needs.

Add additional filters for specific pools, times, regions, and endpoints.

Note

Load balancing requests are the number of uncached requests made by your load balancer. By default, Cloudflare caches resolved IP addresses for up to five seconds.

Latency

Latency metrics show an interactive map, helping you identify regions with Unhealthy or Slow pools.

To view latency information for your load balancer, go to Traffic > Load Balancing Analytics > Latency.

Logs

Logs provide a history of all endpoint status changes and how they affect your load balancing pools. Load Balancing only logs events that represent a status change for an endpoint, from healthy to unhealthy or vice versa.

When a Monitor Group is attached to a pool, each logged health event includes the monitors field. This field lists the individual monitors within the group and their results, making it easier to see which monitor contributed to a status change.

Example event (truncated):

{
  "id": <id>,
  "timestamp": "2025-09-22 19:22:00",
  "pool": {
    "id": "<id>",
    "name": "example-monitor-group-test-pool-us",
    "healthy": true,
