Global Accelerator is an AWS service that improves application availability and performance by intercepting user connections at edge locations and routing them to redundant backends across AWS's global network. The construct library abstracts the underlying CloudFormation resources, allowing you to define accelerators, listeners, endpoint groups, and various endpoint types (Application Load Balancers, Network Load Balancers, EC2 instances, Elastic IPs) through Python code.\n\nThe package depends on core CDK libraries (aws-cdk.core, aws-cdk.aws-ec2, aws-cdk.custom-resources) and related utilities (constructs, jsii, typeguard, publication). It supports Python 3.7 through 3.11. However, AWS CDK v1 reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01, meaning this package is no longer receiving updates; users should migrate to AWS CDK v2 for ongoing support and new features.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are actively maintaining an AWS CDK v1 codebase that requires Global Accelerator constructs. However, plan a migration to AWS CDK v2 soon\u2014this package is no longer updated as of 2023-06-01 and v1 has reached end-of-support. For new projects, use the v2 equivalent instead. Install friction is low and the license is permissive."},"id":"aws-cdk-aws-globalaccelerator","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-cdk-aws-globalaccelerator","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-cdk-aws-globalaccelerator.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aws-cdk-aws-globalaccelerator/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-06-19","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aws-cdk.aws-globalaccelerator","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"The CDK Construct Library for AWS::GlobalAccelerator"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":132471,"position":11551,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.204.0"}
