NET301: Extending Data Centers to the Cloud: Connectivity Options and Considerations for Hybrid Environments

Many enterprises on their journey into the cloud require consistent and highly secure connectivity between their existing data center and AWS footprints. In this session, we walk through the different architecture options for establishing this connectivity using AWS Direct Connect and VPN. With each option, we evaluate the considerations and discuss risk, performance, encryption, and cost. As we walk through these options, we answer some of the common questions that arise from enterprises that tackle design and implementation. You'll learn how to make connectivity decisions that are suitable for your workloads, and how to best prepare against business impact in the event of failure.
