How it works
- HA and scalable cloud DNS service
- You can combine with health-checking services to route to healthy endpoints
- You can also purchase and manage domains
- If you have stringent SLA add Global Accelerator, protecting users and applications from caching
- Routing options
- Simple round robin
- Weighted round robin
Enables A/B testing using any number between 0 and 255
ie: a:3/b:1 means a:75%, b:25% - Latency based routing (LBR) Routes to the fastest endpoint, based on actual performance measurements
- Health checks
- Geolocation routing
- Geoproximity routing (physical user-resource distance)
Alias
Similar to CNAME record, pointing to a LB
Traffic policies
- Graphic editor
- Rules can be based on location, latency…
- Value -> ELB target goup
- Value -> Weighted rule
- 30% -> ELB TG
- 70% -> IP
