AWS Global Accelerator
Improve application availability, performance, and security using the AWS global network
Improve network performance for your applications by up to 60%.
Deliver highly available applications with fast failover for multi-Region and multi-AZ architectures.
Achieve deterministic routing by removing DNS cache dependencies.
Protect your applications from DDoS attacks closer to the source.
How it works
AWS Global Accelerator is a networking service that helps you improve the availability, performance, and security of your public applications. Global Accelerator provides two global static public IPs that act as a fixed entry point to your application endpoints, such as Application Load Balancers, Network Load Balancers, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances, and elastic IPs.
Use cases
Global traffic manager
Use traffic dials to route traffic to the nearest Region or achieve fast failover across Regions.
API acceleration
Accelerate API workloads by up to 60%, leveraging TCP termination at the edge.
Global static IP
Simplify allowlisting in enterprise firewalling and IoT use cases.
Low-latency gaming and media workloads
Use custom routing to deterministically route traffic to a fleet of EC2 instances.
