In 2018, we announced Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints, which enable customers to integrate Route 53 with their on-premises DNS infrastructure for hybrid DNS resolution. In 2023, we improved this integration by providing customers the ability to encrypt DNS queries and responses […]

For cloud users, evaluating data transfer services can be complex, especially when the internal engineering that manages security and delivers high availability and low latency is often abstracted. We are starting a series of posts intended to demystify AWS Data Transfer services and to clarify exactly what Amazon Web Services (AWS) users get when they […]

In this post, we explore how you can use AWS PrivateLink support for Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) resources to facilitate private, secure, and efficient connectivity to shared resources across VPC and account boundaries, as well as from on-premises environments. We also review common use cases and implementation best practices for implementing this new AWS PrivateLink […]
