We recently announced that the AWS Load Balancer Controller now supports AWS Global Accelerator through a new declarative Kubernetes API. This integration brings the power of AWS’s global network infrastructure directly into your Kubernetes workflows, enabling improved application performance by up to 60% for users worldwide, all without leaving your Kubernetes environment. AWS Global Accelerator […]

Amazon S3 is a highly scalable, secure, and durable object storage service that offers industry-leading performance and availability. It’s widely used to store a variety of unstructured data such as images, videos, backups, and logs. However, when uploading data to Amazon S3, especially large files or data accessed from different Amazon Web Services (AWS) Regions, […]

In today’s world, organizations are increasingly looking to migrate their on-premises infrastructure to the cloud to take advantage of scalability, cost-effectiveness, and agility offered by cloud. One critical component of many enterprise architectures is the load balancer, which distributes incoming traffic across multiple servers. If you’re considering migrating your on-premise hardware load balancers to AWS, it’s […]

For cloud users, evaluating data transfer services can be complex, especially when the internal engineering that manages security and delivers high availability and low latency is often abstracted. We are starting a series of posts intended to demystify AWS Data Transfer services and to clarify exactly what Amazon Web Services (AWS) users get when they […]

As organizations continue to roll out cloud-connected Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, the need for accurate and reliable time synchronization has become increasingly critical. Although Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides the Amazon Time Sync Service for basic Network Time Protocol (NTP) needs, some IoT scenarios need a custom NTP solution. For example, users want to serve many IoT […]

In the dynamic landscape of web applications and APIs, ensuring fast, reliable, and secure access for all your customers is crucial. With traditional implementations, though, users of global applications often face latency and reliability challenges because of delays and uneven performance due to the complexity of the global internet infrastructure. AWS Global Accelerator enables you […]

Users everywhere expect stable, consistent, and high-performing applications, regardless of where an application is hosted. However, end users often experience variability and congestion over the public internet, which can be especially problematic when users are geographically distant from the application. These issues can be a major obstacle to providing your users with the online experience […]

Maintaining ownership of IP addresses while deploying resources in multiple accounts can lead to underutilized IP address ranges. AWS Global Accelerator supports cross-account sharing for bring your own IP addresses (BYOIP), which enables you to share IP address ranges with multiple AWS accounts. After you provision an IP address range with Global Accelerator using BYOIP, […]

AWS Global Accelerator now offers support for routing IPv6 traffic directly to dual-stack Network Load Balancer (NLB) endpoints. With this support, you can use dual-stack NLB endpoints behind dual-stack accelerators to achieve end-to-end IPv6 connectivity. In this post, we describe how you can set up a dual-stack accelerator with NLB endpoints, and review considerations for […]

AWS Global Accelerator now offers cross-account support that lets you use a single accelerator to route traffic across multiple AWS accounts. With cross-account support for AWS Global Accelerator, you can select application endpoints behind a single accelerator, even when the endpoints are located in different AWS accounts. In this blog, learn the benefits of using […]
