The normal AWS load balancers are set up to stay in service as long as the cache time on their IP address having been served by DNS... (which, FWIW, I have long argued "isn't sufficient", as many ISPs in countries half a world away from the US or using tech like satellites don't honor DNS cache times and then your requests end up getting routed to someone else... I routinely got tons of HTTP requests clearly destined for someone else's product).
