Global Load-Balancing an internal application

Hello - Is there an Azure native solution for global load-balancing internal private apps? For example, if I have an app-gateway in US East with a Private IP and an App-Gateway in US West with a Private IP, how do I load-balance between them? My understanding is that Traffic Manager is external/public facing only. Also the cross-region load-balancer appears to be public/external only (the option for Global is greyed out unless Public Tier is selected).

 

Thanks,

      Limitations

      • Cross-region frontend IP configurations are public only. An internal frontend is currently not supported.

        oh...sry only read cross region .... if you use an internal than you just need an vnet in differnet regions with global peering... the LB just need to have a privat ip connection.. but you have some latency between the regions
