-In a region with availability zones, a Standard Load Balancer frontend can be zone-redundant. Zone-redundant means that all inbound or outbound flows are served by multiple availability zones in a region simultaneously using a single IP address. DNS redundancy schemes aren't required. A single frontend IP address can survive zone failure and can be used to reach all (non-impacted) backend pool members irrespective of the zone. One or more availability zones can fail and the data path survives as long as one zone in the region remains healthy. The frontend's single IP address is served simultaneously by multiple independent infrastructure deployments in multiple availability zones. This doesn't mean hitless data path, but any retries or reestablishment will succeed in other zones not impacted by the zone failure.
