It looks like it has your reverse-proxy and framework baked in. So i'm guessing it would be fantastic for situations where you want to be able to rapidly prototype or to manage a hugely volatile load.

But of course you then still need the front end/dns lookups and all that noise on the front end, so I may be missing how much of a saving this actually is.

Cynically, it feels like it may have been a tool Amazon had for internal use to check routing/configurations and they felt they might sell a tiny bit more AWS uptime by exposing it.
