AWS Overseas Cloud Access: Strategic Layout to Enhance Cross Border Network Reliability??? Solution//Global IPLC service provider of Shigeng Communication

一、For Chinese enterprises that rely on AWS overseas regional resources, issues such as high network latency, frequent jitter, and limited bandwidth have always been important obstacles to business globalization. A lag in a cross ocean video conference or a timeout failure in a critical API call can directly affect the operational efficiency and customer experience of the enterprise. Faced with a complex international network environment, AWS is systematically improving the stability and performance of cross-border access through multi-dimensional strategic layout.

1. Infrastructure layer: Shorten physical distance and build a global highway

Dense coverage of global regions and local expansion zones: Building infrastructure around user aggregation areas is the fundamental solution to address latency issues. AWS covers 33 geographic regions worldwide, with over 100 Local Zones deployed in key cities. For example, users in the Asia Pacific region can significantly reduce physical transmission distance by accessing through the Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney regions, European users can access through the Frankfurt and London regions, and American users can access through the Virginia and Oregon regions.

Dedicated global backbone network: AWS has a large-scale private global network that optimizes transmission paths and avoids congested public network nodes. Collaborate with Amazon Cloud WAN to achieve global network unified management and provide stable and predictable high bandwidth connections.

Edge site sinking: Over 400 edge nodes worldwide (implemented through CloudFront and LocalZone) deploy computing, storage, and caching capabilities closer to end-users, significantly reducing last mile latency.

Case study: A Chinese overseas gaming company deployed game logic in the AWS Tokyo region and utilized multiple CloudFront edge nodes in the Asia Pacific region to distribute game client update packages and static resources, reducing the average login latency of Southeast Asian players from 320ms to 85ms and lowering the lag rate by 90%.

2. Network Service Layer: Intelligent Routing and Performance Optimization

AWS Global Accelerator: Core Network Optimization Service. Its core value lies in:

Static Anycast IP entrance: Users access fixed IP addresses instead of directly accessing potentially changing regional IP addresses.

Intelligent routing: Utilizing AWS global network to monitor path health and latency in real-time, automatically routing user traffic from the entry point through the optimal path (usually AWS internal backbone network) to the target backend (EC2, ALB, NLB, EIP, etc.).

TCP optimization: Relieve packet loss and congestion issues in cross-border transmission, and improve effective throughput.

Amazon CloudFront: Global Content Delivery Network (CDN), not just caching:

Intelligent edge routing: Users connect to the edge site with the lowest latency.

Protocol optimization: Supports QUIC/HTTP 3 to improve performance in high latency and unstable networks.

High speed return to the source station: By optimizing the network return to overseas regions through AWS, the speed is much faster than direct connection to the public network.

AWS Direct Connect (DX): Establish a physical dedicated line connection:

Stable and Low Latency: Provides a dedicated channel that is more stable, has lower latency, and guarantees bandwidth than the public network.

Bypass public network congestion: avoid the unpredictability of the public Internet.

Hybrid cloud support: Connect local data centers with AWS overseas regions to achieve a stable and efficient hybrid architecture.

Amazon Route 53: Intelligent DNS Resolution:

Delayed routing: Based on the user's request source location, resolve to the healthy endpoint with the lowest latency (such as region, CloudFront distribution, Global Accelerator entrance).

Health check and failover: Automatically block unhealthy endpoints to ensure continuous access availability.

Technical combination example: Chinese users accessing API services deployed in us-east-1 (Virginia):

Entrance: Users access the static IP configured on the Global Accelerator.

Optimal path: Global Accelerator intelligently routes requests to Virginia through AWS backbone network.

Result: Compared with direct connection to the public network, the average latency is reduced by 40% -60%, the packet loss rate is significantly reduced, and the connection stability is greatly improved.

3. Application Architecture and Transport Layer: Resilience Design and Efficiency Enhancement

Distributed and multi regional deployment: Key businesses adopt Active Active multi regional deployment, combined with Route 53 and Global Accelerator to achieve traffic distribution and fault isolation based on geographic location or latency, even if there is a single regional network fluctuation, it does not affect global services.

Protocol and Data Optimization:

Enable QUIC/HTTP3: Especially performs well in high packet loss and high latency networks.

Data compression: Reduce the amount of transmitted data.

CDN caching strategy optimization: Maximize edge hit rate and reduce backtracking.

Connection management and retry strategy: Implement robust retry, backoff, timeout, and circuit breaker mechanisms on both the client and server, and tolerate brief network fluctuations.

Network monitoring and insights: Utilize tools such as Amazon CloudWatch, VPC Flow Logs, AWS Network Manager, etc. to continuously monitor cross-border link performance (latency, packet loss, throughput), traffic patterns, and service endpoint health status, quickly identifying the root cause of problems.

Value Summary: Evolution from Fragile to Reliable

AWS shortens physical distance by building a global dense infrastructure, optimizes transmission paths and performance through intelligent network services, and combines resilient application architecture and transmission optimization to form a complete strategic system for enhancing cross-border access reliability:

Significantly reducing access latency: Physical proximity access+intelligent routing brings about a qualitative change.

Significantly improve stability: reduce jitter and packet loss, ensuring connection continuity.

Enhance business resilience: Multi regional deployment+intelligent DNS/GA for seamless fault transfer.

Optimize user experience and cost: faster response, fewer failed retries, and more efficient bandwidth utilization.

Future outlook: With the development of 5G, satellite Internet, etc., AWS continues to explore edge computing (such as Wavelength), more advanced transmission protocols, AI driven network prediction and optimization, and create a higher performance, more stable, and more intelligent global network access experience for multinational businesses.

AWS's continuous investment in cross-border network reliability is clearing key obstacles for global enterprises - making physical distance no longer equivalent to digital distance, and making cross-border data transmission as smooth and reliable as local access.
