Social Discussion on Interesting Topics

In this session, we’ll give an overview of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) and discuss techniques using AWS and security solutions from AWS Marketplace to help build services that are resilient in the face of DDoS attacks. We’ll discuss anti-DDoS features available in AWS, such as Route 53’s Anycast Routing, Auto Scaling for EC2, and CloudWatch’s alarms, and how these features can be used jointly to help protect your services. Also, you’ll hear from CrownPeak, an AWS Technology Partner, on how it used techniques discussed in the presentation to help mitigate an actual DDoS attack.
