AWS Global Accelerator

Routes TCP/UDP traffic (Layer 4) to the nearest healthy regional endpoint via 2 static anycast IPs, for low-latency global performance and rapid multi-Region failover — the non-HTTP counterpart to Amazon_CloudFront. No open-source project replicates true global anycast routing (it requires owning BGP-announced IP space across regions); the closest self-managed approach combines GeoDNS (e.g. via Route53-style latency routing) with your own regional load balancers, without the anycast IP or Layer-4 failover speed.
