Front Door (classic) works at Layer 7 (HTTP/HTTPS layer) using anycast protocol with split TCP and Microsoft's global network to improve global connectivity. Based on your routing method you can ensure that Front Door (classic) will route your client requests to the fastest and most available application backend. An application backend is any Internet-facing service hosted inside or outside of Azure. Front Door (classic) provides a range of [traffic-routing methods](front-door-routing-methods.md) and [backend health monitoring options](front-door-health-probes.md) to suit different application needs and automatic failover scenarios. Similar to [Traffic Manager](../traffic-manager/traffic-manager-overview.md), Front Door (classic) is resilient to failures, including failures to an entire Azure region.
