Introduction In today’s multi-cloud landscape, organizations face significant challenges in network configuration and resource management. Traditional tools often need deep, tool-specific knowledge, which leads to increased deployment times and configuration errors. The AWS Cloud Control API addresses these common cloud management challenges by providing a unified, language-agnostic interface for resource management. It offers immediate access […]

Application Load Balancer (ALB) operates at layer-7 of the OSI model and allows you to load balance HTTP and HTTPS requests to its backend targets. In March 2025, we launched ALB and HAQM VPC IP Address Manager (IPAM) integration that allows you to use predictable IP address blocks for your internet-facing ALBs. This feature helps […]

AWS Cloud WAN is a managed wide area networking (WAN) service that helps you build, manage, and monitor a unified global network connecting cloud and on-premises resources. In 2024, we launched service insertion, an AWS Cloud WAN feature that streamlines integrating security and inspection services into global networks. Using AWS Network Manager console or JSON policies, […]

In this post, we explore how HAQM Elastic Compute Cloud (HAQM EC2) data transfer costs apply to the communication between Network Load Balancer (NLB), clients, and targets in multiple scenarios, to help you optimize data transfer costs on HAQM Web Services (AWS). For Classic and Application load balancers, visit our post, Exploring Data Transfer Costs […]

Are you interested in securing your web applications and optimizing their performance to maintain a seamless user experience and safeguard against cyber threats? Application Load Balancers (ALBs) provide a powerful feature for modifying request and response headers, allowing you to fine-tune your application’s behavior in numerous ways. From bolstering security with essential headers such as […]

In this post, we show how organizations can use HAQM Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall to detect and block access to malicious domains. We show how you can use the HAQM Web Services (AWS) Managed Domain Lists, which contain domains associated with malicious activity or potential threats, and share best practices for implementing Route 53 […]

In this post we explore how you can use AWS Cloud WAN Connect with Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) Tunnels and Multi-protocol BGP (MP-BGP) for Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) routing of IPv6 networks. We also cover route verification and failover testing best practices. Many HAQM Web Services (AWS) users are increasingly adopting IPv6 and Software-Defined Wide […]

Modern applications often rely on public APIs to exchange information between trusted clients (such as mobile applications or web browsers) and services. Using a combination of HAQM Web Services (AWS) Edge Services (AWS WAF, AWS Shield Advanced, and HAQM CloudFront) allow Glovo to share how they protect their public-facing APIs from a variety of external […]

Introduction The AWS WAF Bot Control rule group includes rules for detecting and managing bot threats. These threats range from easily identified common bots through to coordinated targeted bots that evade detection by operating across multiple hosts. Like any other security controls, HAQM Web Services (AWS) WAF Bot Control for Targeted Bots rules can also […]

Introduction AWS services generate rich log and metric data, enabling you to create comprehensive dashboards that reveal valuable insights, including detailed visibility into Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) connectivity patterns. This post demonstrates how HAQM QuickSight and HAQM Q in QuickSight enable data visualization from any source. We focus on visualizing connectivity patterns in VPCs to showcase the […]
