They finally added support for websockets! Really looking forward to giving this a try with Phoenix.

AWS still doesn't support IPv6. Good to see them talking about HTTP/2.

Waiting for AWS to embrace IPv6.

That's my post, and my misunderstanding. I'll clean it up now, thanks!

So what would be a use case for using ELBs now? Seems like ALBs do everything ELBs do, but with websocket and HTTP/2 support.

I thought that Classic LB's gave you an AAAA endpoint? Am I mistaken?

Those underlined headers hurt the eyes. Could you please switch to a different heading style, please? Maybe smallcaps?

EDIT: And while you're listening: AWS documentation is a mess in the sense that it's way too unorganized; it might be documented but one cannot find it easily.

Any love for Elastic Beanstalk with these? They seem well matched. Though EB always feels a bit of a red-headed stepchild in the AWS portfolio.

ELBs (Classic and Application) do support IPv6. You can CNAME or ALIAS to dualstack.[elb-name].
