Maintaining Availability with Global Services

Most AWS services are independently deployed to Regions and Availability Zones as a form of availability containment, providing you with a great foundation for building highly-available applications. Not all services though; Amazon Route 53, AWS Global Accelerator, and Amazon CloudFront are examples of inherently global services that do not lend themselves to zonal or regional partitioning. Instead, these global services require the usage of peculiar design patterns to ensure service availability while at the same time allowing you to seamlessly deploy configuration changes to hundreds of edge locations worldwide in a matter of a few minutes or less. Join us for a panel discussion with Principal Engineers from these services to understand how they think about availability in global services and how you can leverage the lessons AWS has learned operating them to build global, highly-available applications.
