Technical Details

What does this mean?

You hung up too soon! Like calling tech support and then getting impatient and hanging up before they could help. The load balancer had your answer ready, but you'd already left the building!

Technical Definition

The client closed the TCP connection to the Elastic Load Balancer before the load balancer could send a response.
