Isn't AWS Global Accelerator just the edge CDN (like Cloudflare) here? When the actual web server went down it will not able to cover it, looks like AWS Global Accelerator lacks the Cloudflare feature of showing you the last cached result.

Global accelerator is an anycast solution that routes your traffic to an specific AWS region (an EC2 instance or load balancer) via AWS's backbone network. It improves latency mostly, but can also be used for cases where a static IP is required (zero-rated billing, customers using egress firewall rules, etc)

CloudFront is the AWS CDN offering.
