Can ELB Be Used Across Accounts or VPCs?
- Shared load balancers cannot be used across accounts and cannot route traffic to backend servers in VPCs that are different from the VPCs of the load balancers.
- For dedicated load balancers, you can add servers in a VPC connected using a VPC peering connection, in a VPC in another region and connected through a cloud connection, or in an on-premises data center at the other end of a Direct Connect or VPN connection, by using their IP addresses.
