How to create an AWS outpost

brandy_barnett

An outpost is a physical location that provides direct connectivity to your AWS resources in a specific AWS Region. Outposts allow you to use AWS services in your on-premises data center or colocation environment.Outposts are available in select AWS Regions. Each Outpost consists of a number of AWS compute and storage services, delivered as racks that you can order and connect to your network.

An AWS Outpost is a fully managed service that provides customers with access to AWS infrastructure in their own data centers. Outposts bring native AWS services, software, and operating models to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility. Customers use Outposts to extend their on-premises data centers to the AWS Cloud by creating Outposts deployments that they can connect to from their on-premises networks.

An Amazon Web Services (AWS) outpost is a physical data center location that is built and operated by AWS. Outposts bring AWS-designed hardware and services to customer data centers, colocation spaces, or on-premises facilities. AWS Outposts enable customers to use the same AWS technologies, services, APIs, tools, and operating models they use in AWS Regions, but in customer data centers and facilities. AWS Outposts can be used to run compute and storage on-premises, ingesting and processing data locally, and accessing other AWS services in the Region.

Here are some key points about AWS Outposts:

Outposts are fully managed by AWS, which means customers don't have to worry about provisioning, operating, or upgrading the outpost infrastructure.
Outposts come in two variants: AWS Outposts Stack and AWS Outposts Compute.
AWS Outposts Stack is a fully integrated package that includes compute, storage, and networking capabilities, making it ideal for running applications on-premises.
AWS Outposts Compute is a compute-only package that can be used for running compute-intensive applications on-premises or for integrating on-premises data processing with AWS cloud-based compute and storage resources.
Outposts can be deployed in customer data centers, colocation spaces, or on-premises facilities.
Outposts provide low latency and high throughput connections to AWS Regions, making them ideal for latency-sensitive applications or for applications that need to process data locally.
