Business continuity through unforeseeable events is one of the challenges of today's technology dependant businesses. The ability to define and implement resilient architectures that can tolerate such events is one of the benefits of moving to public cloud where infrastructure and services can be deployed and utilised as required as part of a resilient architecture.

For our Australian customers on the AWS platform, implementing such a resilient architecture meant utilising another availability zone within the same Sydney region or sending data offshore other foreign AWS regions. We know that customers want the certainty that comes with a secondary region, and the comfort of knowing their data is held in Australia.

Well now that is possible.

AWS have announced the addition of the new Melbourne region to the ever-expanding deployment choices available on AWS. This opens a new set of resilient architectures implemented wholly within Australian shores.

Telstra Purple can utilise Telstra cloud connectivity options to design and implement a multi-region resilient architecture that is wholly Australian.
