A company is designing the network for an online multi-player game.

AWS Global Accelerator is the correct service for improving network performance for UDP-based global applications. It uses the AWS global network and edge locations to route user traffic to healthy application endpoints in the closest or best-performing AWS Region. This reduces latency, jitter, and packet loss compared with normal internet routing, which is critical for multiplayer gaming. Global Accelerator supports UDP listeners and endpoint groups across multiple Regions, matching the requirement for deployment in eight Regions. Transit Gateway and VPC peering are private networking constructs and do not optimize global end-user ingress traffic. CloudFront is a content delivery network for HTTP and HTTPS workloads and does not provide general UDP acceleration for multiplayer game traffic.
