Partner agencies allowlist fixed public IPs to reach a multi-Region municipal API, and latency varies by client location. Which global performance offering should architects evaluate?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Partners with firewall allowlists hate IP addresses that wander. Global Accelerator hands them stable anycast IPs and still steers users to the healthy Region. It is the fixed front door with smart indoor routing.
Full Explanation
Using global service offerings to improve performance includes Global Accelerator when clients need static anycast IPs—common with partner allowlists—while traffic is routed to optimal healthy endpoints across Regions. CloudFront is primarily a CDN/edge HTTP cache and is not always the fit for allowlisted dual-stack anycast entry to regional APIs; a single AZ Elastic IP and weekly-changing NLB addresses fail multi-Region stability. Continuous improvement evaluates Accelerator when municipal APIs must combine global performance with fixed partner IP requirements.
