It’s 2 AM when your phone alerts you to failing customer transactions in the North Virginia Region. As a network operator managing an Imaging platform on Amazon Web Services (AWS), you’re faced with troubleshooting an architecture that spans multiple Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC), uses AWS Transit Gateway for interconnectivity, and runs many microservices. […]

Managing DNS query logging across multiple Amazon Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) has long been a significant challenge for enterprise teams. The traditional approach required manual configuration of DNS query logging for each VPC individually, creating a cascade of operational problems. This fragmented process led to inconsistent implementation across different environments, compliance gaps due to missed […]

Enterprises are building distributed applications that span multiple cloud environments to optimize for resilience, data locality, and specialized services communication. These architectures require consistent, private, and high-performance network connectivity between clouds without exposing traffic to the public internet. Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced AWS Interconnect – multicloud, a new capability that enables private, managed Layer […]

Building resilient network architectures that can withstand both planned and unplanned maintenance events is critical for organizations that rely on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Direct Connect for their hybrid connectivity. When your business depends on consistent, reliable connectivity between on-premises environments and AWS, understanding how to architect for maintenance activities becomes essential. This 300-level content […]

As organizations increasingly adopt multicloud architectures, the need for interoperability between cloud service providers has never been greater. Historically, however, connecting these environments has been a challenge, forcing customers to take a complex “do-it-yourself” approach to managing global multi-layered networks at scale. To address these challenges and advance a more open cloud environment, Amazon Web […]

AWS announced the launch of accelerated recovery for managing public Domain Name System (DNS) records, a new Amazon Route 53 feature that targets a 60-minute Recovery Time Objective (RTO) for your DNS operations in the unlikely event of service disruptions in the N. Virginia Region (us-east-1). This feature ensures continuity for your critical workloads by […]
