Global Accelerator Accelerator

An AWS Global Accelerator Accelerator is a networking resource that improves the availability and performance of applications with global users. It provides static IP addresses that act as fixed entry points to your application endpoints across multiple AWS Regions. Traffic is routed through the AWS global network to the optimal endpoint based on health, geography, and routing policies, ensuring low latency and high availability.

Fields

TitleIDTypeData TypeDescription
_keycorestring
accelerator_arncorestringThe Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the accelerator.
account_idcorestring
created_timecoretimestampThe date and time that the accelerator was created.
dns_namecorestringThe Domain Name System (DNS) name that Global Accelerator creates that points to an accelerator's static IPv4 addresses. The naming convention for the DNS name for an accelerator is the following: A lowercase letter a, followed by a 16-bit random hex string, followed by .awsglobalaccelerator.com. For example: a1234567890abcdef.awsglobalaccelerator.com. If you have a dual-stack accelerator, you also have a second DNS name, DualStackDnsName, that points to both the A record and the AAAA record for all four static addresses for the accelerator: two IPv4 addresses and two IPv6 addresses. For more information about the default DNS name, see Support for DNS addressing in Global Accelerator in the Global Accelerator Developer Guide.
dual_stack_dns_namecorestringThe Domain Name System (DNS) name that Global Accelerator creates that points to a dual-stack accelerator's four static IP addresses: two IPv4 addresses and two IPv6 addresses. The naming convention for the dual-stack DNS name is the following: A lowercase letter a, followed by a 16-bit random hex string, followed by .dualstack.awsglobalaccelerator.com. For example: a1234567890abcdef.dualstack.awsglobalaccelerator.com. Note: Global Accelerator also assigns a default DNS name, DnsName, to your accelerator that points just to the static IPv4 addresses. For more information, see Support for DNS addressing in Global Accelerator in the Global Accelerator Developer Guide.
enabledcoreboolIndicates whether the accelerator is enabled. The value is true or false. The default value is true. If the value is set to true, the accelerator cannot be deleted. If set to false, accelerator can be deleted.
eventscorejsonA history of changes that you make to an accelerator in Global Accelerator.
ip_address_typecorestringThe IP address type that an accelerator supports. For a standard accelerator, the value can be IPV4 or DUAL_STACK.
ip_setscorejsonThe static IP addresses that Global Accelerator associates with the accelerator.
last_modified_timecoretimestampThe date and time that the accelerator was last modified.
namecorestringThe name of the accelerator. The name must contain only alphanumeric characters or hyphens (-), and must not begin or end with a hyphen.
statuscorestringDescribes the deployment status of the accelerator.
