AppRunner as an endpoint for Gobal Load Accelerator

Open ignoramous opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

Tell us about your request AppRunner instances as an endpoint in Global Load Accelerator (GLA). Today, EC2 instances, ALB, NLB (among other endpoints) can be added to GLA to have it forward traffic from AWS edge locations to GLA endpoints wherever.

Describe alternatives you've considered Alternatives include:

  1. Spinning up Fargates behind an ALB / NLB / Edge-optimized APIGW
  2. Multiple AppRunner domains ALIASd to a top-level Route53 managed, geo load-balanced domain.
  3. Use Cloudflare to proxy requests to AppRunner endpoints (unsure if CloudFront can be used to same effect).
  4. Open this issue and bide my time...

Additional context Anything else we should know? I am using Cloudflare right now, and paying them a hefty amount for a comparable setup.

Thank you for the request. Are you looking for Global Accelerator to an AppRunner service in one AWS Region, or are you running AppRunner in multiple Regions? I'd appreciate hearing more about your use case too - feel free to message me cbarclay at amazon.

Hi: Multiple regions app-runner behind GLA.

The usecase is running serverless workloads in a region (not really cloudfront-edge/wavelength/local-zones, though those would be nice, too) nearest to the user (like fly.io, for example).

Btw, on aws.amazon.com, AppRunner shows up in the main menu under Compute and Containers, but not Serverless
