AWS Global Accelerator now supports AWS CloudFormation

Posted on: May 14, 2020

You can now use AWS CloudFormation to easily create and manage accelerators and other AWS Global Accelerator components by using a CloudFormation template. With CloudFormation, you can use a programming language, or a simple text file to automate creating and managing accelerators, listeners, endpoint groups, and endpoints for your Global Accelerator configuration in a secure, efficient, and repeatable way.

CloudFormation templates allow you to automate Global Accelerator creation and management, and to more easily integrate Global Accelerator provisioning with other AWS services. You can continue to create and update accelerators and other Global Accelerator resources by using the AWS Management Console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) and by working with API operations programmatically.

To get started with CloudFormation for Global Accelerator, visit the Global Accelerator product page or see the developer documentation in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.
