Typhoon clusters include an AWS load balancer for pairing with Ingress Controller deployments to terminate multiple HTTP and HTTPS applications exposed via Ingress.
Until now, Typhoon has used elastic load balancers (ELBs) (now called "classic balancers"). AWS now offers Network Load Balancers (NLBs) which can handle millions of requests per second. This is important given that the balancer multiplexes or terminates multiple end-user applications.

Used for the maintainer's AWS clusters and to serve a few HTTPS apps via Ingress. This has been used with Nginx Ingress 0.10.2 and 0.11.0.
