A

AWS global accelerator

88
Q

What are the similarities between AWS Global Accelerator and CloudFront?

A

Both use AWS global network and edge locations, and integrate with AWS Shield for DDoS protection

89
Q

What are the differences between AWS Global Accelerator and CloudFront?

A

CloudFront uses caching (of images & videos & dynamic content - API & dynamic content) and content is served at the edge

Global Accelerator does not use caching; they are proxying packets at the edge to applications running in 1/1+ AWS regions

AWS Global Accelerator and Amazon CloudFront are separate services that use the AWS global network and its edge locations around the world. CloudFront improves performance for both cacheable content (such as images and videos) and dynamic content (such as API acceleration and dynamic site delivery). Global Accelerator improves performance for a wide range of applications over TCP or UDP by proxying packets at the edge to applications running in one or more AWS Regions. Global Accelerator is a good fit for non-HTTP use cases, such as gaming (UDP), IoT (MQTT), or Voice over IP, as well as for HTTP use cases that specifically require static IP addresses or deterministic, fast regional failover. Both services integrate with AWS Shield for DDoS protection.
