The $15 plan notably does not come with DDoS protection though.
- ipsento606 11mo agothe pricing page says it comes with "Always-on DDoS Protection" but not "Advanced DDoS Protection" I have no idea what these terms mean in practice

- yellow_cobra 11mo agoThis is not true. Even the Free plan has DDoS protection. L3/L4 (TCP SYN floods, UDP reflection attacks and similar) filtering is built-in and always-on, by default. CloudFront terminates TLS, and only forwards valid HTTP(S) requests to cache / origin. The "Always-on DDoS Protection" on L7 is protection against massive requests spikes, built natively into CloudFront. Detection and mitigation of these attacks happens inline. The "Advanced DDoS Protection" on L7 is adjustable, score-based DDoS protection configurable on AWS WAF (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/introducing-the-aws-waf-application-layer-ddos-protection/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery...). Detection and mitigation of these attacks happens within seconds.
