AWS v6.83.0 published on Monday, Jun 16, 2025 by Pulumi
pulumi/pulumi-aws

    Manages a Lightsail load balancer resource.

    Use this resource to distribute incoming traffic across multiple Lightsail instances to improve application availability and performance.

    Example Usage

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

const example = new aws.lightsail.Lb("example", {
    name: "example-load-balancer",
    healthCheckPath: "/",
    instancePort: 80,
    tags: {
        foo: "bar",
    },
});

    import pulumi
import pulumi_aws as aws

example = aws.lightsail.Lb("example",
    name="example-load-balancer",
    health_check_path="/",
    instance_port=80,
    tags={
        "foo": "bar",
    })

    package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v6/go/aws/lightsail"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		_, err := lightsail.NewLb(ctx, "example", &lightsail.LbArgs{
			Name:            pulumi.String("example-load-balancer"),
			HealthCheckPath: pulumi.String("/"),
			InstancePort:    pulumi.Int(80),
			Tags: pulumi.StringMap{
				"foo": pulumi.String("bar"),
			},
		})
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

    using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Pulumi;
using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() =>
