Pull request overview

This PR extends the networking administration documentation by adding a new section describing Clever Cloud “dedicated frontends” (dedicated load balancer entry points), including typical use cases, available configurations, and how to request a quote.

Changes:

  • Added a “Dedicated Frontends” subsection under Custom network services.
  • Documented why you might need dedicated frontends (isolation, fixed inbound IPs, higher availability).
  • Described 1-frontend vs 2-frontends (HA) options and linked to the support ticket centre for requests.

Comment on lines +52 to +53
By default, incoming traffic to your applications goes through Clever Cloud's shared frontends (powered by [Sōzu](https://www.sozu.io/)). For use cases requiring stronger network isolation or higher availability guarantees, you can request **dedicated frontends**.

Two configurations are available:

- **1 Dedicated Frontend**: a single load balancer dedicated to your organization.
- **2 Dedicated Frontends in high availability**: two dedicated load balancers providing fault tolerance at the network entry level, eliminating the frontend as a single point of failure. This configuration is recommended for critical architectures.
