We just launched AWS Global Accelerator! https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-aws-global-accelerator-for-availability-and-performance/ … With it, you can use our global backbone to accelerate your applications. Now, allow me to nerd out and go deep on how some of the fault tolerance actually works ...
Yes! You can create proximity-based, weighted active-active or failover configurations and the AWS Edge network and global backbone will figure out how to get the traffic there.

Nice, thanks for confirming! Do you have any services/features to route users to the 'best' edge location (and avoid peering problems, BGP hijacks, etc)?

We still have Amazon Route 53 Latency Based Routing. With that you can register multiple endpoints, tag them with an AWS region, and we figure out the best region to send users to; based on actual constantly-running Internet latency probes.
