Summary:
Enhance the Cloudflare integration to support tracking of Load Balancer (LB) records, improving visibility into traffic distribution, server performance, and potential issues.

Requirements:
Enable retrieval of Load Balancer records via the Cloudflare API.
Display LB records, including request distribution, response times, and server health.
Implement logging for historical analysis and troubleshooting.
Allow filtering and reporting based on Load Balancer activity.
Provide alerting for anomalies, such as server downtime or unbalanced traffic.
Technical Implementation:
Integrate Cloudflare’s Load Balancer API to fetch real-time LB data.
Develop a UI component to display LB record metrics and logs.
Store LB records for historical reference and trend analysis.
Implement notification mechanisms for traffic irregularities.
Expected Outcome:
Improved monitoring and troubleshooting for Load Balancer configurations.
Enhanced visibility into server health and traffic distribution.
Proactive issue detection, reducing downtime and performance issues.
