UDP Gateway Features

Transform your UDP workloads into serverless architectures. Proxylity UDP Gateway eliminates the operational overhead of managing UDP servers, load balancers, and scaling infrastructure. Deploy UDP services that automatically scale from zero to millions of packets per second using familiar AWS services like Lambda, Step Functions, and DynamoDB.

Infrastructure as Code Native

Built for teams that embrace Infrastructure as Code. Deploy and manage UDP services using CloudFormation templates with our custom resources. Version control your network infrastructure alongside your application code.

• CloudFormation Custom Resources - Native CloudFormation support for listeners, destinations, and client restrictions
• Automated Configuration - Account configuration automatically retrieved from S3 during deployment
• Least Privilege IAM - Generate minimal IAM roles with only required permissions per destination
• Template Generator - Web-based tool generates CloudFormation templates for your specific use cases

Comprehensive AWS Integration

Native support for 14+ AWS services developers use most. Route UDP traffic directly to your existing serverless architecture without additional infrastructure or message brokers. Whether you're building IoT data pipelines, network monitoring systems, or real-time gaming backends, integrate seamlessly with the AWS services you already know.

Global Multi-Region Architecture

Enterprise-grade global infrastructure deployed across multiple AWS regions. Your UDP services automatically benefit from geographic distribution and fault tolerance without additional configuration.

• Multi-Region Deployment - Independent stacks in each AWS region ensure maximum availability
• Automatic Failover - Traffic automatically routes to healthy regions during outages
• Data Residency - Keep data processing within specific geographic boundaries for compliance
• Low Latency - Clients connect to the nearest regional endpoint for optimal performance
• Regional Isolation - Each region operates independently to prevent cascading failures

Intelligent Batching & Performance

Purpose-built for high-throughput UDP workloads. Smart batching algorithms reduce AWS API calls by up to 90% while maintaining sub-second latency for time-sensitive applications. Process millions of packets per second while paying only for what reaches your destinations—blocked traffic costs nothing.

• Flexible Batching - Automatically adjusts batch sizes based on traffic patterns
• Concurrent Processing - Multiple batches processed simultaneously for maximum throughput
• Cost Optimization - Dramatic reduction in per-packet processing costs
• Configurable Policies - Fine-tune batching behavior per destination
• Real-time Metrics - Monitor batching efficiency and performance in CloudWatch

Developer-Friendly Security Model

Security designed for modern development teams. Use familiar AWS IAM patterns with fine-grained permissions and zero-trust architecture. We never see your data—Proxylity routes packets directly to your AWS account using IAM role assumption. No shared credentials, no overly broad permissions, no trust required.

• Least Privilege Access - Each destination gets its own IAM role with minimal permissions
• External ID Protection - Unique external IDs prevent confused deputy attacks
• Assumption-Based Auth - Proxylity assumes your roles, never stores your credentials
• Audit Trail - Full CloudTrail logging of all API calls made on your behalf
• Resource-Level Permissions - Restrict access to specific Lambda functions, DynamoDB tables, etc.

Transparent AWS Marketplace Pricing

Usage-based pricing that scales with your needs. No upfront costs, no hidden fees, no separate billing systems. Pay only for packets delivered to your destinations.

• AWS Marketplace Integration - Single bill, unified with your existing AWS usage
• AWS Credits Compatible - Use existing AWS credits to pay for Proxylity
• Generous Free Tier - Get started with substantial free usage each month
• Volume Discounts - Automatic progressive discounts as your usage grows
• Detailed Usage Reporting - Clear breakdown by port, region, and destination
• Firewall Protection - Don't pay for blocked packets

Advanced Traffic Management

Production-ready traffic management and security controls. Flexible firewall rules, IP allowlisting, and policy-based client restrictions that integrate with your existing security infrastructure. Perfect for protecting game servers, securing IoT device fleets, or enforcing compliance requirements for regulated industries.

• IP/CIDR Allowlisting - Traditional IP-based access controls
• Policy-Based Access - External policy management similar to SPF records
• Geographic Restrictions - Block or allow traffic from specific countries/regions
• Rate Limiting - Protect backend services from traffic spikes
• Real-time Monitoring - Live traffic metrics for alerting

Enterprise-Ready Operational Excellence

Built for production workloads with comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and operational tools. Full observability into your UDP services with CloudWatch integration and detailed performance metrics.

• CloudWatch Integration - Native metrics and logging in your AWS account
• Custom Alarms - Set up alerting for traffic spikes, errors, or latency
• Distributed Tracing - End-to-end request tracking from client to destination
• Performance Analytics - Detailed insights into batching efficiency and throughput
• Health Checks - Automated monitoring of destination availability
• Operational Dashboards - Pre-built CloudWatch dashboards for common use cases
