I am a beginner at cloud service. I come to know that Azure Cloud service automatically do Load Balancing with multiple instances, Then Why we need Traffic Manager? Can you explain difference?

The Major difference is that Azure Traffic Manager can designed to distribute traffic globally (Multiregional environments) and you could implement failover/failback with traffic manager easily. It also comes with Layer7 network protocol

Azure Load Balancer can only route traffic inside an Azure region and it comes with Layer4 only
