Interconnect

AWS Interconnect – last mile (Preview)

A managed connectivity capability enabling customers to easily connect their remote locations to AWS in just a few clicks.

What is Interconnect – last mile

AWS Interconnect - last mile simplifies on-premises last mile connectivity to AWS. Customers can either use their current network provider or find a new partner through AWS to instantly create high-speed, private connections to the AWS network. It makes it easier for customers to onboard to AWS from their on-premises locations and removes the operational burden by automating network configuration.

Benefits

With Interconnect – last mile, customers can now setup a private, reliable connection in minutes using their current last-mile network provider. For locations their provider cannot serve, this auto-discovers eligible partners based on the address and provides a guided experience to quickly sign-up and request a connection. This saves customers weeks of back-and-forth for partner identification and network setup.

Interconnect - last mile abstracts away the complexity of network plumbing such as ordering cross-connects, configuring VLANs, ASNs, and BGP peering by automating these steps and enforcing AWS best practices. This lowers the risk of misconfiguration errors.

Interconnect – last mile enables the ability to adjust bandwidth speeds as workloads fluctuate, supporting scaling natively, from 1 Gbps to 100 Gbps with increments at 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 Gbps. Scale up or down via the AWS console, without needing to reprovision connections or open a support case.

How it works

AWS Interconnect – last mile automates the end-to-end process of establishing private, resilient connectivity between customer on-premises locations and AWS. In the AWS Console, customers only have to select their location, preferred AWS Region, and bandwidth speed. Everything else is taken care of behind the scenes.
