Anyone who has worked with Microsoft Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) and domain-joined workloads in the past likely knows how critical proper DNS resolution is to healthy operations. Even if you haven’t worked with AD DS workloads, if you are reading this post, you have likely heard of some outage that was caused by […]

This post assumes a certain level of technical knowledge, including familiarity with DNS terminology, Wireshark, and Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints. Introduction The Domain Name System (DNS) is a critical service underpinning nearly the entire internet. As nearly every application begins with DNS resolution, a highly available and performant DNS architecture is crucial for application […]

Most web services rely on DNS to resolve names to IP addresses and sometimes other pieces of information. Amazon Route 53 provides highly available and scalable recursive DNS resolution, domain registration, and authoritative DNS-hosted zones that include health check capabilities and a broad array of routing capabilities. When using Amazon Route 53, you can scale […]

In this blog post, we present an augmented approach of managing AWS Cloud WAN segments in a secure, scalable, and on-demand way. When your organization increases the number of AWS accounts and AWS Regions in use, operational and security complexities related with admitting new user-created virtual private clouds (Amazon VPCs) to the network also increase—from […]

In this scenario, common practices such as inserting the original IP address into the request headers (for example, X-Forwarded-For) or utilizing Proxy protocol are widely used to […]

Private network for data movement in generative AI In this post, we cover the architecture patterns for building secure, private network connectivity for data movement in generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) using Amazon Web Services (AWS) and AWS Partner Network (APN) services. Data privacy and security are top of mind for customers exploring generative AI […]

While website performance issues are a common occurrence, pinpointing their root causes can be a challenging task. In this post, you will learn how to simplify the performance troubleshooting process by unlocking the potential of the Server-Timing header.
